Cinnamon Rolls

One of our family favorite are my cinnamon rolls.  The dough is mixed in our bread maker.  
1-cup warm Whipping Cream
3-eggs room temperature
1/3 cup room temperature unsalted butter
5-cups All Purpose flour sifted twice
1 teaspoon salt
1-cup sifted sugar
2-package Yeast

Place all the ingredients in the order above in your bread maker and set machine to the dough setting.

Once the machine beeps remove the dough and place on cutting board and roll out.
Spread 1/3 cup of butter on dough, spread 1-1/4 cup of light brown sugar on butter, sprinkle cinnamon on brown sugar like you would do for cinnamon toast.  Roll tightly and cut cinnamon buns into 2" slices.  Place on parchment paper and let slices rest at least 1-hour before you place them in the oven.

Filling:
1/3 cup butter room temperature
1-1/4 cup light brown sugar
Ground Cinnamon powder

Bake at 375.  Have oven at this temperature for at least 15-minutes before you place rolls in the oven.    Rolls will bake at exactly 19 minutes. 
Set oven timer for 10-minutes after you place rolls in oven.  Once alarm goes off turn ...rotate your baking dish for even baking and set the oven timer for 9-minutes.  Remove from oven after 19-minutes.  Allow to cool before you frost.

You can serve the cinnamon buns plain or with frosting:

1-bar of Cream Cheese (Philly is the best)
3/4 cups of butter
1-3/4 cups of sifted powder sugar
1-teaspoon vanilla
tiny pinch of salt 

Place Cream Cheese and Butter in kitchen aid and blend until creamy.  Add powder sugar slowly.  Add vanilla and pinch of salt blend one last time.  Ready to spread.
