We are just loving these bread machine cinnamon rolls. I got this recipe from a dear family friend. So great to eat on these cold, snowy days. They are very easy to make and your family will love them! Enjoy!

Cinnamon Rolls

• 1 1/4 cup warm water
• 1 egg
• 2 T melted butter
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1 t salt
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 1/2 t yeast

Layer ingredients into your bread machine, starting with all wet ingredients, then all dry ingredients. Make a small dip in flour and put yeast in dip. Don’t let the yeast get wet. Run your bread machine on the dough cycle. Once done, turn out dough onto a well floured surface and roll out into a rectangle. Spread 1/2 cup of melted butter over dough. Mix roughly 1 cup of brown sugar and 2 T cinnamon together. Sprinkle over the butter. Roll your dough the long way. Cut into even rolls and place in a 9×13 greased pan. Put in a warm spot and let rise for 2-3 hours. You can also put in a pan, cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove from refrigerator and put in warm spot to rise for 3-4 hours. Cook at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until brown.

Frosting

• 1/2 cup softened butter
• 3 cups powdered sugar
• 1-2 t vanilla
• 1-2 T milk

Mix all until smooth and creamy. Spread frosting over warm cinnamon rolls.

Enjoy!

I found this really easy recipe the other day and thought I’d try it out on my church small group.  I actually rolled out the rolls and sliced them the night before and placed them back into the refrigerator to bake the next day.  The rolls did not rise as much as I thought they would and I don’t know if I had done it all in one day if that might have helped.  But they tasted great and were so very easy to throw together.  Enjoy!
