STEPHANIE'S CINNAMON ROLLS
(Makes 20 HUGE rolls)
­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­
1/2 cup WARM WATER (105­ to 110­degrees)
2 pkgs ACTIVE DRY YEAST (2 scant TBS)
2 TBS GRANULATED SUGAR
1 (3­1/2­oz.) pkg INSTANT VANILLA PUDDING (the key)
­OR­
2 cups PREPARED VANILLA PUDDING (homemade or
store­bought)
1/2 cup BUTTER, melted
2 large EGGS, beaten
1 tsp SALT
8 cups ALL­PURPOSE FLOUR (approximately)
1/2 cup BUTTER, melted
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
5 8­ or 9­inch SQUARE BAKING PANS, greased (DO NOT
put more than 4 rolls in each pan)

­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­

In a small bowl, combine water, yeast and sugar. Stir until
dissolved. Set aside.

In a large bowl, make pudding mix according to package
directions. Add butter, eggs and salt; mix well. Add the yeast
mixture; blend. Gradually add flour and knead until smooth,
adding "sprinkles" of flour as needed to control stickiness.
Initially I add 7­1/2 cups of the flour, then add the other
1/2 cup by sprinkling it on. You may or may not need all of
it­­or you may need more, depending on the humidity in your
kitchen on a given day. Once the dough is no longer sticky and
is soft and silky feeling (like as baby's behind), the dough
is ready.

Place in very large greased bowl. Cover and let rise
until double in bulk (about 1 hour).


Punch down and let rise again (about 45 minutes).

On a lightly floured surface, roll out to a 40" x 21"
rectangle (approximately, it doesn't have to be exact). Spread
1/2 cup of melted butter over surface.

­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­
TOPPING
­­­­­­­
2 cups BROWN SUGAR, firmly packed
2 TBS CINNAMON
­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­

In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon together.
Sprinkle all over top of surface. Roll up very tightly.
With a knife, put a notch every 2 inches. With string or
thread, place under roll by notch and criss­cross over to
cut roll (makes a nice clean cut).

Place on greased baking pan, 2­inches apart. Lightly
press rolls down with your hands (just a LITTLE, it helps
to hold them together better).

Cover and let rise until double again, about 1 hour.

Bake at 350­degrees for 15 to 20 minutes. Take them out
when they JUST start to turn golden. DON'T OVER­BAKE!
Frost warm rolls with Cream Cheese Frosting.

­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­
1 (8 oz) pkg CREAM CHEESE, softened
1/2 cup BUTTER, softened
1 tsp VANILLA
3 cups POWDERED SUGAR
2­3 TBS MILK, just enough to fluff (approx)
­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­

Combine all ingredients and mix until smooth. Spread on
very warm rolls. Rolls are best when served warm.

---
Make as directed. Don't substitute. I make 1/2 the recipe
and it makes 8-9 rolls. To cut them use a piece of floss, a knife will
crush them. I use the french vanilla instant pudding making 1/2
package with 1 cup of whole milk. You can try the prepared pudding if
you want. You can make them the day before after assembly and before
the last rise. Cover and refrigerate. Take out about 2-3 hrs before
baking to rise. The roll before cutting will be about 2" in diameter.
Allow plenty of space between them - at least an inch.


You had me until 2 cups of vanilla pudding. Nope.

Have never found a recipe that can compete with Lost Larson's in Chicago. They have an orange zest essence which makes them to die for.

Same! This is the best recipe and I’ve tried so many. Maybe I got it from the PP? Someone recommended it here on DCUM a few years ago and I’ve been using it since. It is perfection. I do a cream cheese frosting too because that is my preference

Yes, definitely cream cheese frosting. I’ve added orange zest to it on occasion too and it’s delicious.

I have made these for years and years, in fact I just made them again last night. They are the best! (If you want a cinnabon style bun, vs those crispy swedish style cinnamon rolls.)

No need to add vital wheat gluten. I like to add zest of one lemon to dough. Better if allowed a slow rise overnight in oven before baking.

Second this, but haven’t tiredly with buttermilk. I’ve tried many recipes and vanilla bean blog’s is the winner. You just need to plan ahead.
