Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons instant yeast
  • 1 ¼ cups warm milk 105-115°F
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup powdered coffee creamer or dry milk powder
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup white granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup sprinkles
  • 1 cup cream cheese or vanilla icing

Method
 

  1. Prepare the dough by mixing flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Add warm milk, melted butter, and egg until a soft dough forms.
  2. Let the dough rise in a greased bowl for about 2 hours until doubled in size.
  3. Roll the dough into a rectangle, spread softened butter, and sprinkle cinnamon. Mix filling ingredients together and distribute evenly.
  4. Roll tightly and cut into 12 rolls. Place in a greased pan and let rise for another hour or overnight in the fridge.
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Cool slightly, then top with icing and serve warm.

Notes

  • Dough should be slightly tacky, add flour if too wet.
  • Let the dough rest if it shrinks while rolling.
  • Use traditional sprinkles to avoid color bleeding.
  • Refrigerate shaped rolls overnight for easy morning baking.
  • For mini rolls, cut smaller rectangles.
  • Use enough cinnamon for classic flavor.
