Ingredients

• 2.25 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 packet Instant yeast
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cups Milk
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 large Egg
• 0.5 cups Light brown sugar
• 1 tablespoons Ground cinnamon
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
• 0.75 cups Powdered sugar
• 1.5 tablespoons Milk (for icing)
• 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, warm the milk until lukewarm (about 110°F). Stir in melted butter and beat in the egg.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Knead for 3-5 minutes until smooth.

Step 4

Cover the dough and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Step 5

Meanwhile, prepare the filling by mixing light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and softened butter in a small bowl until it forms a spreadable paste.

Step 6

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle roughly 10x14 inches.

Step 7

Spread the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/4-inch border along the edges.

Step 8

Starting from the longer edge, tightly roll up the dough into a log. Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 24 equal pieces.

Step 9

Place the slices into a greased mini muffin pan or close together on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 10

Cover the rolls with plastic wrap and let them rise for 15-20 minutes in a warm area.

Step 11

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 12

Bake the rolls for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant.

Step 13

While the rolls are baking, make the icing by whisking together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 14

Allow the mini cinnamon rolls to cool for 5 minutes, then drizzle the icing generously over the top.

Step 15

Serve warm and enjoy!
