Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 3 quarters cup Milk
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar, packed
• 1 tablespoon Ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
• 0.75 cups Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Milk (for glaze)
• 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch round baking dish or an 8x8 square baking dish.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add the milk and melted butter to the dry ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.

Step 4

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead lightly for 1 minute until smooth. Roll the dough into a rectangle approximately 12x8 inches.

Step 5

Spread the softened butter evenly over the surface of the dough.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough.

Step 7

Starting from one long side, tightly roll the dough into a log. Slice the log into 8 equal pieces (about 1.5 inches thick each).

Step 8

Arrange the rolls, cut side up, in your prepared baking dish, leaving a little space between each roll.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the rolls are lightly golden on top and cooked through.

Step 10

While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.

Step 11

Once the cinnamon rolls are out of the oven, let them cool for 5 minutes before drizzling the glaze over the top.

Step 12

Serve warm and enjoy your delicious, homemade cinnamon rolls!
