Awesome Cinnamon Rolls

Awesome Cinnamon RollsThis cinnamon roll recipe is fantastic. The dough only has to rise about 30 minutes, so you could make them on a lazy weekend morning. I am not that with it in the morning, so I make mine in the afternoon. We eat some for dessert and put the rest in the fridge for breakfast. :)

  11. Add a bit a flour on top and coat your hands with flour, it will be very sticky at first. Slowly fold in some flour a little at a time until it is easier to work with. Once the flour is workable, but still quite soft, knead the dough for about 5 minutes. Make sure not to add too much flour or else your cinnamon rolls will come out tough.

  23. Use floss to score the dough to make 14 rolls. Then slide the floss under the roll at the score mark and wrap the two ends up and cross them to cut the dough.

  29. I don't like very sweet cinnamon rolls, so I like to eat them without icing. But you can make a quick and easy icing by mixing 2 Tbsp softened butter with 1 cup of powdered sugar, 1 tsp vanilla and add milk a splash at a time until you reach the consistency you like. Or you could find a nice cream cheese frosting recipe. Put the icing on while the cinnamon rolls are hot, for the best results.
