Cinnamon Rolls

Yesterday I made pizza dough. It makes 2 pizzas but I only used one. I decided to use the left over dough to make cinnamon rolls. 

Dough Recipe:
1 1/2 cups warm water
2 tsp yeast
1 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
4 cups flour

Mix together water, yeast and sugar and let set for 10 minutes.
Add salt and flour and knead for 5 minutes.
Let rise for 1 1/2 hours.
Punch down and let rise for 15 more minutes. Heat the oven to 375.

Roll out the dough 
Melt 1/4 cup of butter and cover the dough
2 Tbsp cinnamon
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
Spread on dough
Cut in 1/2 inch pieces
After rising for 15 minutes
Bake for 18-22 minutes
While the cinnamon rolls were baking I made cream cheese frosting.
Frosting Recipe:
1/4 cup butter
4 oz cream cheese
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup powder sugar

Beat together for 2-3 minutes.

 
Out of the oven
Smothered in frosting
Enjoy!
