📝 Instructions

12 steps

1. Add the warm milk, eggs, softened butter, granulated sugar, salt, flour, and yeast to your bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer.

2. Set the bread machine to the Dough cycle and start it. The process will take approximately 90 minutes.

3. While the dough is rising in the bread machine, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl for the filling.

4. Once the Dough cycle is complete, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough into a 16x21-inch rectangle.

5. Spread the room-temperature butter evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.

6. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the buttered surface and gently press it into the dough.

7. Starting with the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut the log into 12 even slices using a sharp knife or dental floss.

8. Place the rolls in a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm area for about 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.

9. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the rolls for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

10. While the rolls are baking, make the frosting by beating the cream cheese, powdered sugar, softened butter, vanilla extract, and milk together until smooth and creamy.

11. Remove the baked rolls from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before spreading the frosting generously over the top.

12. Serve warm and enjoy the gooey, cinnamon-filled delight!
