I Make These the Night Before and Bake Them in the Morning. My Family and Friends Can't Stay Out of Them.
Ingredients:
1 cup milk
1/2 cup butter
1 cup water
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
6 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 cups dark brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
to make frosting
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 (3 ounce) package cream
cheese, softened
1 tablespoon butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons milk
Directions:
1. Warm the milk in a small saucepan until it bubbles, then remove from heat.
2. Mix in the butter; stir until melted. Add water and let cool until lukewarm.
3. In a large bowl, combine the milk mixture, yeast, white sugar, salt, eggs
4. and 2 cups flour; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup
5. at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together,
6. turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
7. Divide dough into two pieces. Roll each piece into a 12x9 inch rectangle. In a bowl,
8. stir together the cinnamon and brown sugar. Spread each piece with half of the butter, half
9. of the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture. Roll up dough, using a little water to seal the seam.
10. Cut each roll into 12 slices using a very sharp knife or dental floss. Place rolls onto two
11. 9x13 inch greased baking pans. Cover and let rise until almost doubled, about 1 hour. Meanwhile,
12. preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
13. Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.
14. To make frosting; combine confectioner's sugar, cream cheese, butter and vanilla.
15. Add milk gradually until frosting reaches a spreading consistency. Spread over warm (but not hot) cinnamon rolls.
