Cook Time
20 mins
Total Time
20 mins
 
Course: Breakfast
Servings: 12 cinnamon rolls
Author: Ashlee Marie
Ingredients
dough
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp Active Dry Yeast
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 C water warmed, between 100 and 120.
  • 8 Tbsp butter melted
  • 3/4 cup whole milk warmed
  • 3/4 C granulated sugar
  • 1 lrg egg
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 5 C all purpose flour plus more for dusting counters
Cinnamon/Sugar Layer
  • 8 Tbsp butter softened
  • 3/4 C packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 12 slices thick center cut bacon
Frosting
  • 8 ounces full fat cream cheese softened
  • 4 Tbsp butter softened
  • 2-3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp maple
US Customary - Metric
Instructions
  1. lightly stir the yeast, sugar and warm water together in the bottom of your mixing bowl
  2. let sit 5-10 mins (until double is size) to activate the yeast
  3. With the mixer on low add the milk, butter, sugar, egg and salt
  4. Add the flour 1 C at a time (you might not need the full 5th C) you don't want the dough to be sticky, but you don't want it to start pulling away from the sides either
  5. Pour it into a greased bowl, cover with a damp towel and let rise, someplace warm, until doubled in size, about 60 mins.
  6. bake the bacon 375 degrees 15 mins, stop before it gets crisp
  7. flour your counter top and pour the dough on to it, knead it LIGHTLY and roll it out into a long rectangle, about 15x26 inches. You want it thin, that will give you more twists, about 1/4 inch thick
  8. cover the dough from edge to edge with the soft butter. Use it all, don't be stingy.
  9. mix the sugars and cinnamon and cover it entirely, again use it all, it will be thick.
  10. chop bacon over the top, spread evenly
  11. Starting at one of the 15 inch sides roll it up.
  12. slice into 12 rolls, 1 1/4 inch thick
  13. the rolls in a 9x13 pan let and rise slightly, 30-45 mins.
  14. Preheat the oven to 350
  15. bake 18-23 mins
  16. When it's golden brown and doesn't feel squishy anymore it's done!
  17. Beat the frosting ingredients together until smooth and you can either spread across the top
