Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Espresso powder
- 1.25 cups Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Brewed coffee
- 1 tablespoon Whole milk
Instructions
Warm the milk in a small saucepan over low heat until it is just warm to the touch (about 110°F/45°C). Remove from heat and stir in the sugar and butter until melted. Let cool slightly.
Sprinkle the yeast over the milk mixture and let it sit for 5-10 minutes, until bubbly and foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of flour and the salt. Add the yeast mixture and egg, stirring to create a sticky dough. Gradually add the remaining flour until a soft dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a 12x18-inch rectangle on a floured surface.
Spread softened butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle with the brown sugar and cinnamon. Roll the dough tightly into a log starting from the long side, pinching the seam to seal.
Cut the roll into 12 evenly sized slices and place them in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 18-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Let cool slightly.
For the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, espresso powder, brewed coffee, and milk in a small bowl until smooth.
Drizzle the glaze generously over the warm rolls and serve. Enjoy your Java Glazed Cinnamon Rolls!
