Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup whole milk (warmed)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 large egg
  • For filling: 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • For frosting: 1 cup cream cheese (softened), 2 cups powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For decoration: Black chocolate sprinkles or mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast, salt, and cinnamon. In another bowl, mix warm milk, melted butter, and egg. Combine both mixtures until dough forms.
  2. Knead dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise for about 1 hour or until doubled.

  5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake rolls for about 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  6. While baking, prepare frosting by mixing cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
