Instruction

  • Add dough ingredients to pan of bread machine in the order listed. Select dough cycle. Add additional flour or milk to desired consistency.
  • When dough cycle is completed, transfer dough to well floured surface. Roll to an 18 x 12-inch rectangle. Spread with 1/2 cup unsalted butter. Sprinkle on 1 cup of light brown sugar and 4 teaspoons of cinnamon.
  • Butter a 9-inch round cake pan or other dish.
  • Beginning with a long side, roll dough into a tight 18-inch log. Cut off 1 inch from each end and discard. Cut log into 16 1-inch slices. Place cut side down in prepared dish. Cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator overnight. (See Tip 3)
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • The next morning, remove rolls from the refrigerator. Allow to continue rising for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from oven; allow to cool for 10 minutes.
  • While rolls are baking, make the cream cheese frosting. Beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth and fluffy. Add vanilla extract; beat well. Add confectioners' sugar; beat until creamy and smooth. If necessary, add 1 to 2 teaspoons of milk to desired consistency. Frost cinnamon rolls while still warm.
