Fill your kitchen with the heavenly aroma of freshly baked Cinnamon Rolls. Fluffy, pillowy dough swirls around a buttery cinnamon-sugar filling, baked and slathered while warm with rich vanilla cream cheese frosting.

Bakery-Style Warm Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Glaze

★ 4.9 / 5 (580 reader reviews) Yield: 12 large rolls

Giant, fluffy cinnamon rolls packed with brown sugar cinnamon filling and smothered in melted tangy cream cheese icing. Better than Cinnabon!

🛒 Ingredients

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. 1
    Knead dough ingredients together until smooth and elastic (8 mins). Let rise in warm spot for 1 hour until doubled.
  2. 2
    Roll dough on floured surface into a 12x18 inch rectangle.
  3. 3
    Spread softened butter over dough; sprinkle cinnamon and brown sugar evenly.
  4. 4
    Roll tightly into a log; slice into 12 even rolls using unflavored dental floss or a sharp knife.
  5. 5
    Arrange rolls in a greased 9x13 baking dish; let rise 30 minutes.
  6. 6
    Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 22-25 minutes until golden brown.
  7. 7
    Beat cream cheese frosting ingredients; spread generously over warm rolls so it melts into every crevice.
💡 Chef's Insider Tip: Pouring 1/3 cup of warm heavy cream over the risen rolls right before baking makes them impossibly soft and gooey!
