Jeremy's Cinnamon Rolls     

Ingredients:
Dough:
1 (1/4 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup warm milk
½ cup granulated sugar
⅓ cup softened butter
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
4 cups flour

Filling:
1 cup packed brown sugar
3 tbsp cinnamon
⅓ cup butter, softened

Icing:
6 tbsp butter
1½ cups powdered sugar
¼ cup cream cheese
½ tsp vanilla
⅛ tsp salt

Preparation:
To start the rolls, dissolve the yeast in the warm milk in a large bowl.

In a separate bowl, add sugar, butter, salt, eggs, and flour, mix well.

Pour the milk/yeast mixture in the bowl and mix. If using a stand mixer you will want to use the dough hook. Mix well until well incorporated.

Place dough into an oiled bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place about 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.

Roll the dough out on a silicon mat or lightly floured surface, until it is approx 16-18 inches long by 12 inches wide. It should be approx ¼ inch thick.

Combine brown sugar and cinnamon. Spread softened butter on the dough and then the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture.

Carefully starting from the long edge, roll the dough down to the bottom edge. The roll should be about 18 inches in length. Cut the roll into 1½ inch slices.

Place the cut rolls into an oiled 13×9 inch pan Cover them with a damp towel. Let them rise again for another 30 minutes until they double in size.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.

While the rolls are baking, mix all icing ingredients and beat well with an electric mixer until fluffy.

You can start these the night before. After placing rolls in the pan, cover them and refrigerate. In the morning, let rise for the second time (allow an extra 30 minutes) and then bake as instructed.
