Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of flour, granulated sugar, salt, and yeast. Add warm milk, eggs, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
-
Gradually add the remaining 2 cups of flour until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.
-
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
-
After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a 18x12-inch rectangle.
-
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon for the filling. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the dough.
-
Starting with the long end, roll the dough up jelly-roll style and pinch the seam to seal. Cut the roll into 12 equal pieces using a sharp knife.
-
Place the rolls in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, cover with a kitchen towel, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
-
While the rolls are baking, prepare the cream cheese icing. In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Gradually add milk until the desired consistency is reached.
-
Once the sweet rolls are done baking, drizzle the cream cheese icing over them while they are still warm. Serve and enjoy!
