Ingredients

• 4 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 packet Instant yeast
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cups Warm milk (110°F/43°C)
• 0.25 cups Brewed strong coffee (cooled)
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 Large egg
• 0.75 cups Brown sugar (packed)
• 1 tablespoons Ground cinnamon
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
• 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Rum
• 1 tablespoons Milk (for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine the warm milk, brewed coffee, melted butter, and egg. Mix until well incorporated.

Step 3

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir to form a cohesive dough.

Step 4

Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 8-10 minutes or until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Step 5

Place the dough into a greased bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it doubles in size.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon for the filling.

Step 7

Roll the dough out into a rectangle roughly 16x12 inches. Spread the softened butter evenly over the surface.

Step 8

Sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture evenly over the buttered dough.

Step 9

Starting from one of the longer edges, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.

Step 10

Cut the roll into 12 equal pieces and place them into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover with a towel and let rise for another 30 minutes.

Step 11

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. Let them cool slightly.

Step 12

To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, rum, and milk until smooth.

Step 13

Drizzle the glaze over the slightly cooled rolls. Serve warm and enjoy!
