Copy Cat CinnaBon Recipe

I can’t think of many things that make your house smell as amazing as homemade cinnamon rolls. This Copy Cat CinnaBon recipe is no exception! The house will smell heavenly when you bake these!

YIELD: 12 ROLLS

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup milk
2 eggs , room temperature
1/3 cup butter , room temperature
4 – 4 1/4 cups bread flour (plus extra for rolling)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup white sugar
1 package active dry yeast

FILLING
1 cup brown sugar , packed
3 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1/3 cup butter , softened

FROSTING
4 ounce cream cheese , softened
1/4 cup butter , softened
1 1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt

DIRECTIONS:

1. Combine 2 cups of the flour and yeast in a large mixing bowl. In a saucepan, combine milk, butter, sugar and salt over medium heat until temperature reaches 120 to 130 degrees (butter will be almost melted). Add milk mixture to flour mixture along with eggs and mix with an electric mixer on low for 30 seconds. Stir in as much of the flour as you can. (see note below for bread machine)
2. Place dough a floured surface and knead in as much flour as possible. Continue to knead the dough until it is very smooth and elastic (this will take about 5-10 minutes). Cover dough with oil or cooking spray and plastic wrap. Let rest covered for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon and set aside.
