Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
Dough:
½ cup milk
½ cup water
¼ cup butter
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
½ cup white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
1 (.25 ounce) package rapid-rise yeast
1 egg
Filling:
¼ cup butter, softened
1 cup light brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Icing:
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon butter, softened
1 tablespoon milk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups confectioners' sugar
Directions
Heat milk, water, and 1/4 cup butter together in a saucepan over medium heat until bubbling, about 5 minutes. Let cool to 120 to 130 degrees F (49 to 54 degrees C), 1 to 2 minutes.
Mix flour, white sugar, salt, and yeast together in a separate bowl. Mix egg into warm milk mixture.
Pour milk mixture and 1/3 of the flour mixture into a mixing bowl; beat using an electric mixer until moistened. Add remaining dry ingredients slowly until a dough has pulled together. Knead on a lightly floured surface for 8 minutes. Place in a covered bowl and let rise in a dry, warm place until doubled in size, 1 to 2 hours.
Punch dough down. Roll on a lightly floured surface into a 16×12-inch rectangle. Spread 1/4 cup softened butter evenly over dough. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together in small bowl and sprinkle evenly over dough. Roll up from the short side; cut into 12 even rolls.
Place rolls into a greased 9×13-inch glass baking dish. Cover and let rise in a dry, warm place, 8 hours, to overnight.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 17 minutes.
Meanwhile, beat cream cheese, 1 tablespoon butter, milk, and vanilla extract for icing using an electric mixer in a bowl until creamy; slowly mix in confectioners' sugar until smooth.
Remove cinnamon rolls from the oven and flip out onto a cooling rack; let cool slightly, 5 to 10 minutes, before covering in icing.
