Ingredients

  • FOR ROLLS:
  • 2 3/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp instant yeast
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 25 gm butter
  • 1 large egg
  • FOR FILLING:
  • 50 gm butter softened
  • 1 tsp cinnamon powder
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • FOR GLAZE:
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tbsp cream cheese
  • 2-4 tbsp warm milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Keep a round pan or a square pan ready, after greasing and flouring.
  • Whisk together the flour, sugar, salt and yeast in a large bowl.
  • Warm the milk, water and butter in a microwave for 45 seconds. Whisk till butter is melted and mixture is lukewarm. Whisk in the egg.
  • Pour this wet mixture into the dry ingredients and start kneading till a smooth dough is formed - around 10 minutes. It may be slightly sticking but don't be tempted to add more flour.
  • Switch off the oven and snuck in the bowl into the warm oven for around 15 minutes.
  • Keep the butter ready. Whisk the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl and keep aside.
  • When the bowl is taken out, you will see the dough is risen. Flour the working surface and spread the dough into a rectangle, around 15 x 9 inch.
  • Spread the soft butter all over and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar. Roll tightly and cut into equal rolls - around 12. Arrange into the pan.
  • Preheat the oven again and while it gets done, let the rolls rest, around 10 minutes. Bake for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the ingredients to make the glaze, add enough milk to keep it thick.
  • Once the rolls are out, cool slightly and pour the glaze over. Enjoy!
