Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Brush a 9-inch square baking dish with 2 tablespoons melted butter.
• Whisk flour, 2 tablespoons white sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Work 3 tablespoons softened butter into flour mixture using your hands. Beat milk and egg together in another bowl; pour into flour-butter mixture and stir with a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms.
• Turn dough out onto a floured work surface and roll dough into a 1/4-inch thick rectangle. Brush surface of dough with 2 tablespoons melted butter.
• Whisk 1/2 cup white sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Sprinkle 1/2 of the cinnamon sugar mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon sugar over butter-brushed dough. Roll dough around filling to form a log; cut log into 18 rolls and place rolls in the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until rolls are set, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Beat confectioners' sugar, cream cheese, 1/4 cup softened butter, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until frosting is smooth. Top hot cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting.

QUICK 45 MINUTE CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the flour, the sugar, salt, and yeast together until evenly dispersed. Set aside. In a small microwavable bowl, heat the water, milk, and butter together in the microwave until the butter is melted (about 30-45 seconds). Stir the butter mixture into the flour mixture. Add the egg and knead with hand or with stand mixer for 3-4 minutes or until the dough is no longer sticky. Place in a lightly greased bowl and let rest for about 5 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and turn off after 10 minutes or just before placing rolls in oven.
• After the dough has rested for 5 minutes, roll it out in a 15x9 inch rectangle. Spread the softened butter on top. Mix together the cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle it all over the dough. Roll up the dough tightly and cut into 9 (large) even piece. Place in a lightly greased 9-inch or square pan (or cut into 12 small pieces and place in a 9x13 pan) and lightly cover with aluminum foil or plastic wrap.
• TURN OFF the oven and place the cinnamon buns in the oven to rise for 20 minutes. Keep the buns in the oven (REMOVE THE FOIL OR PLASTIC) and turn on the oven to 375F. Bake the cinnamon rolls for 15-20 minutes or until golden. Remove from oven and top with glaze.
• Mix the powdered sugar, vanilla and 2 Tablespoons milk together until smooth and lump free. Drizzle over warm rolls.

EASY SOFT CINNAMON ROLLS (USING A QUICK SECRET TECHNIQUE)

Steps:

• Start by taking a small bowl. Combine and stir together warm milk and dry yeast in it. Now set it aside for the yeast to dissolve and activate for about 10 minutes.
• Next, in a mixing bowl add eggs and sugar and beat on high speed for about 5 minutes. Then, reduce the mixing speed to low and add salt, melted butter, and the milk/yeast mixture.
• Now add half of the sifted flour in the first round and then half a cup at a time thereafter until all the flour is properly incorporated. The dough should be soft and should not stick too much to the sides of the mixer bowl and silicone spatula or hands.
• Next, cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and place it on your kitchen counter in a warm spot to rise for an hour and a half to two hours.
• Time to make the delicious cinnamon roll filling! The best time to make it is while the dough is rising. That's when you also make the frosting.
• Begin by taking a medium bowl and adding the softened butter, cinnamon, and brown sugar to it.
• Mix it all with a spoon until it's well mixed. Your cinnamon roll filling is ready! Set this filling aside on the countertop until ready for use.
• Make sure to NOT refrigerate the filling or it will be impossible to spread over the rolled dough.
• Let's also make the cinnamon roll cream cheese frosting real quick while the dough rises!
• Into a medium bowl, add softened butter and softened cream cheese.
• Next, using a hand mixer, mix them until they're well combined.
• Now add sugar to the bowl and beat it until it's dissolved, and the consistency is smooth and creamy, for about 30 seconds or so. Then add the rest of the ingredients: vanilla extract, salt, and heavy cream.
• Beat well once more until all combined. Set aside on the countertop until it's time to use it.
• After an hour and a half to two hours, the dough should triple in size.
• Remove the dough from the bowl and onto a floured surface. Next, split the dough into two. Roll out one chunk of the dough at a time using a rolling pin into a large rectangular shape about ½ inches thick.
• Next, spread out half of the filling evenly over the entire rectangle. Roll the dough with filling tightly into a log. Pinch the edge of the dough to the roll so it doesn't unroll while it rises and bakes.
• Now repeat the same steps with the other half of the dough. You can make the cinnamon rolls bigger by not splitting the dough into two chunks but by working with the entire dough at the same time.
• Now you can use a string or clean dental floss to cut the log into 1-inch slices as shown in the picture below.
• Next, place the rolls onto a baking pan lined with parchment paper and let it rise for 45 minutes in a warm place.
• Personally, I preheat the oven to 105F then turn the oven off and place the rolls to rise into the warm oven.
• Time to bake the cinnamon rolls! Preheat the oven to 350F (180C). Start by baking the rolls for 7 minutes then remove them from the oven.
• Here's the secret technique: pour 1 tbsp. of heavy cream over each cinnamon roll, then place it back into the oven and continue baking until they turn golden brown and all heavy cream melts.
• Once they're done baking, remove the baked rolls from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes before frosting them.
• To frost, simply spread out frosting over the warm rolls.

SOFT CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
• In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture with the sugar, salt, egg and 1 cup flour; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well with each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Lightly grease an 8x8 inch square baking pan. Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/4 inch thick rectangle. Smear the dough with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon and brown sugar. Roll up the dough along the long edge until it forms a roll. Slice the roll into 16 equal size pieces and place them in the pan with the cut side up.
• Cover pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight or cover and let rise at room temperature until doubled in volume, about 45 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Bake rolls until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
