My husband stumbled upon this recipe a while ago and its so easy and so amazingly good we have made it several times.
You will need:
1 loaf of frozen bread dough thawed (we used Rhodes brand)
1 cup of brown sugar
3 TBSP of cinnamon
1 stick of butter
For frosting:
½ brick of cream cheese
½ stick of butter
1 ½ cup powdered sugar
½ tsp of vanilla if you would like
Take the thawed dough and roll it out. Roll it so that it’s about a foot long.
In a medium bowl combine the stick of softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Mash it all together to that it makes a thick paste like mixture.
Take that mixture and place it into the middle of the dough running through the middle. Make sure the mixture is evenly spread and stop spreading it when you are about an inch from the top and the bottom of the dough.
Once its spread begin to roll it. Roll it up until you have one long log of cinnamon roll.
Cut it into 12 slices and put them in a baking dish on their ends, you should be able to see the cinnamon swirl. You can let them rise for a few hours (until they double in size) or make them the night before and refrigerate them so they rise nice and slow. Remove them from the fridge an hour before you want to bake them.
Bake in a 400 degree pre-heated oven for 15 minutes or until nice and golden brown.
For frosting add cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar. Mix until well blended. If you choose you can add the vanilla or for some more kick add another dash of cinnamon.
Frost and enjoy!! Cinnabon has NOTHING on these!!
