Ingredients
  

Dough

  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp table salt
  • 1 packet high rise yeat (2 1/4 teaspoons)
  • 1 cup water
  • ¼ cup milk
  • tbsp Kate’s Unsalted Butter, softened

Filling

  • ½ cup Kate’s Salted Butter, softened ½ cup = 1 stick of Kate's Butter
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon, or to taste

Glaze

  • 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
  • tbsp milk
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp Kate’s Unsalted Butter, softened
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Set aside 1 cup of all-purpose flour from the total amount.
  • Mix the remaining flour, sugar, salt, and yeast in a large bowl.
  • Heat water, milk, and unsalted butter until hot (125-130 degrees F).
  • Stir the hot liquids into the dry mixture. Mix in enough reserved flour to form a soft dough that doesn't stick to the bowl.
  • Turn out onto a floured board and knead until smooth and elastic (~8-10 minutes).
  • Cover the dough with a damp tea towel and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  • Roll out the dough on a floured surface, using a rolling pin to create a roughly 13 x 19-inch rectangle.
  • Spread softened salted butter on the dough and sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon evenly over the butter.
  • Starting from one long side, tightly roll the dough into a jelly roll.
  • Cut into 12-14 slices, ensuring even size, and place them cut-side down in a well-buttered 9x13-inch baking pan, allowing the rolls to touch.
  • Cover with a damp tea towel and let rise until doubled in bulk (~40-50 minutes).
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Bake until the internal temperature reaches 190 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer (~25-30 minutes).
  • Cool the rolls for 10-15 minutes.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, combine all five glaze ingredients. Using a wooden spoon or electric hand mixer, beat until smooth.
  • Drizzle the prepared glaze over the cinnamon rolls. Serve and enjoy!
