Ingredients
- 1 loaf Rhodes frozen bread dough, thawed
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 4 tbs melted butter
Frosting:
- 5 oz cream cheese, softened
- ¼ cup butter, softened
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbs milk
Instructions
-
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon until evenly mixed.
-
On a lightly floured surface, roll the thawed dough into a rectangle.
-
Brush the melted butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture on top.
-
Roll the dough lengthwise into a log and slice into approximately 2-inch thick rolls (you should get about 9–12). Lightly grease a baking dish and arrange the rolls inside. Cover with lightly greased plastic wrap and place in a warm spot to double in size.
-
While the rolls rise, make the frosting: in a bowl beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk, then beat until creamy. Set aside.
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Remove the plastic wrap and bake the rolls for 20–22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
-
When the rolls come out of the oven, spread the cream cheese frosting over them while they are warm and serve.
