We made this cinnamon roll recipe for an equine obstacle course we were hired to cater several summers ago and let’s put it this way…none ever came home. They are super easy to make and absolutely amazing! Seriously these are the best cinnamon rolls EVER!

One of the event hosts loved them so much that he took the whole tray and stuck it in his truck for “safekeeping”. These cinnamon rolls are yummy cold, and amazing hot fresh from the oven and the icing… well let’s say it is memorable! Our host said that there is never enough icing on cinnamon rolls but these ones are great. This was coming from a professional baker and cake decorator.

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Dissolve yeast in 3/4 cup warm water, set aside. While yeast is dissolving, mix an additional 1 cup of water, milk, sugar, salt, and butter in a mixer fitted with the dough hook until smooth. Add dissolved yeast to the mixture.

Add 5 cups of flour, mix until smooth. Mix in remaining flour and knead using the dough hook on low speed for 10 minutes.

Remove from mixer bowl and place in greased bowl; cover with a towel or oiled plastic wrap. Let rise 1 1/2 hours in a warm place.

After the dough has doubled in size, punch down to remove excess air and roll out in a long rectangle: approximately 12×36″.

Combine filling ingredients together and brush onto the surface of the dough. Roll up dough tightly and cut into 1 1/2 inch slices.

Place the slices into a greased large pan and cover; let rise until double.

In a small bowl, whisk egg and brush lightly over the surface of the rolls.

Bake for approximately 25 minutes or until the tops of the rolls are golden.

Once the rolls are out of the oven, drizzle slather (Come on this is the real world) icing over the tops of the cinnamon rolls. Let cool. (Good luck! Never happens in this house) And Enjoy!
