How to make Classic Cinnamon Rolls - I Heart Recipes

Hey fam! Today I’m sharing my recipe for classic cinnamon rolls. Follow this step-by-step tutorial to make your own fluffy and sweet cinnamon rolls completely from scratch! Better yet, no mixer is needed for this recipe.

Here are the ingredients!
4 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 (.25 oz) envelopes of dry active yeast
1 tsp granulated sugar
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 cup warm milk
1/2 cup softened butter

Filling
1/2 cup softened butter
1 1/4 dark brown sugar
2 tbsp ground cinnamon

Frosting
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup softened butter
2 cups confectioners sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract

We are going to start off with mixing activated yeast, butter and milk. Slowly add in the dry ingredients. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes. Now don’t skip the kneading, y’all! This step is crucial. Let the dough rise for 45 minutes. Roll the dough out, spread with butter, sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon, and then roll it up. Slice into rolls and place in a greased baking dish. After the rolls have rested for 30 minutes, bake for approximately 20 minutes. While these are cooling, whip up the cream cheese frosting. Frost those bad boys up and serve warm. You have got to try this recipe, friends! These cinnamon rolls are so easy and way better than store bought!
