Delicious Family Secret Cinnamon Rolls Recipe

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt. Mix them well to ensure the yeast is evenly distributed.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm milk and melted butter. Add the eggs and beat until well combined. Slowly pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms.

Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until it's smooth and elastic. Place it in a greased bowl, cover it with a towel, and let it rise for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.

While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and ground cinnamon until well mixed. Set this mixture aside.

Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle, about 1 cm (1/2 inch) thick. Spread the softened butter evenly across the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.

Starting from one long side of the rectangle, tightly roll the dough up into a log. Once rolled, cut the log into 12 equal pieces. Place the rolls in a greased baking pan, ensuring they are close but not touching.

Cover the pan with a towel and let the rolls rise for another 30-45 minutes until they're puffy.

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Once the rolls have risen, bake them in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until they are golden brown.

When done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly while you prepare the glaze.

In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle this glaze over the warm cinnamon rolls.

Your delicious family cinnamon rolls are now ready to be enjoyed! Serve them warm and savor the sweet aroma of home.
