Cinnamon Rolls


We made these cinnamon rolls yesterday and absolutely loved them. They're easy to make and turn out beautiful. Enjoy!

1 c warm milk (110 degrees F)
2 eggs, room temperature
1/3 c melted margarine
4 1/2 c bread flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 c white sugar
2 1/2 tsp bread machine yeast

1 c brown sugar, packed
2 1/2 T cinnamon
1/3 c butter, softened

3oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 c butter, softened
1 1/2 c confectioners' sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/8 tsp salt

1. Place ingredients in the pan of the bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select dough cycle; press Start.
2. After the dough has doubled in size turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, cover and let rest for 10 minutes. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon.
3. Roll dough into a 16x21 inch rectangle. Spread dough with 1/3 c butter and sprinkle evenly with brown sugar/cinnamon mixture. Roll up dough and cut into 12 rolls. Place rolls in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
4. Bake rolls in preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes. While rolls are baking, beat together cream cheese, 1/4 c butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla, and salt. Spread frosting on warm rolls before serving.
