That's been a long time I've wanted to do this recipe : The Cinnamon Rolls
Even though it is quiet long to make, it's so worth it, and that's challenging !
What do you need :
- 1 cup of lukewarm milk
- 1/4 cup of sugar
- 4 cups of flour
- 2 teaspoons of instant yeast
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup softened salted butter
- 2 tablespoons of melted salted butter
For the filing :
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon
For the icing :
- 3/4 powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons of hot water
What you have to do :
In a small bowl mix the milk and sugar, set aside for later.
In a large bowl pour the flour, add the yeast, then add the eggs and the milk. mix everything with a wooden spatula and progressively add the softened butter. Knead everything by hand on a floured surface. Put the dough into a bowl and chill for 15 min.
Spread the
pastry dough over a floured work surface to obtain a large rectangle (50*35 cm).
In a small bowl, mix all the stuff for the filing and spread it on the dough.
Roll the dough to make a 50 cm cylinder.
Cut 2-3 cm large slices and put them on a buttered dish. Space them and let it cool 1h30 (or until they touch each other).
Bake for 25 min in a preheated oven 180°C or until it get golden brown.
For the icing, just mix the sugar with the hot water and pour it upon the cinnamon rolls and ..... THAT'S IT ! Enjoy it and tell me what you think about it !!!!
Cinnamon & T Time My Dear !
