Cinnamon Rolls With Cream Cheese Frosting

I have been having this craving for cinnamon and the first thing came into my mind was cinnamon rolls :)
Found this recipe in Hesti's site - again :)
Many cinnamon rolls recipe that I found but this one recipe attracted me to give a try - I guess cos of the cream cheese frosting and also the very positive review I read in the post
Hesti, you're right! These rolls are soooo yummy!!! Seriously!
Thanks alot - again, for sharing this wonderful recipe! Hope you will not get bored visiting my blog if in the future it looks like reading your own blog archive *grin*

Before topping up with cream cheese frosting - my hubby tried one and he said it's already good enough! :)

With cream cheese frosting - it's heaven! :)

Soft & fluffy texture - even on the next day

What you need:

250g bread flour

250g all purpose flour

100g sugar

2 tbsp full cream milk powder

9g instant yeast

1 tsp bread improver

70g butter

1 tsp salt

1 egg yolk, 1 egg

250ml warm water

Using breadmaker:

Pour water, all eggs followed by flour, sugar, milk powder, improver, salt and lastly - yeast

Set to dough and after 5 minutes kneading, add in butter

The process is 1hr 30mins incl proofing

Cinnamon filling:

(I modified a little)



100g soft butter

100g soft brown sugar

5 tsp ground cinnamon

1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

---> Rub in everything till well mixed

For cream cheese frosting:

3 tbsp cream cheese

2 tbsp butter

1 1/2 tbsp icing sugar

3 tbsp  fresh milk

---> Whisk everything til smooth

After dough is ready, punch and take out from the pan, knead for a while to release the air bubbles

Flatten with rolling pin and spread with cinnamon filling

Roll the dough away from you like rolling a swissroll

Cut the dough rolls and arrange with a little distance in the greased pan

Proof til doubled in size - approximately 30minutes

Bake in preheated oven of 200degC for 12-15minutes or til golden brown

Pour cream cheese frosting with spoon while the rolls are still hot and let it set

This is purely yummy - especially with a cup of hot earl grey tea! :)
