Homemade Cinnamon Rolls - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 1/4 to 4 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
1 pkg. RapidRise yeast
1 1/4 c. milk
3/4 c. granulated sugar
1/4 c. butter
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs
6 Tbsp. butter, softened
1/2 c. packed brown sugar
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 recipe maple nut glaze or powder sugar glaze

Preparation

In a large mixer bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of the flour and yeast.
Heat the milk, sugar, the 1/4 cup butter and salt just until mixture is warm (120\u00b0) and the butter is almost melted, stirring constantly.
Add milk mixture to flour mixture; add eggs. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds; scrape sides of bowl constantly.
Beat on high speed for 3 minutes.
Using a spoon, stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can (dough will be soft).
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately soft dough (3 to 5 minutes).
On lightly floured surface, roll half the dough to 12 x 8-inches.
Spread with 3 tablespoons softened butter. Combine brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle half over rectangle. Roll up from a short side.
Seal edges.
Make a second roll with remaining dough, butter and sugar mixture.
Slice each dough roll into 8 pieces.
Arrange slices, cut side down, in a greased 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan.
Cover; let rise until nearly double (about 1 hour).
Bake rolls in a 350\u00b0 oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until light brown.
Invert at once onto a wire rack.
Cool slightly. Drizzle rolls with Maple Nut glaze or powder sugar glaze.
Serve warm.
Makes 16 rolls.
