Giant Cinnamon Roll

THIS, THIS is perfection! Basically cinnamon roll cake vibes. I used my homemade cinnamon roll recipe, and made it into a giant cinnamon roll. My boys asked for more, and more. Also, the location I got to cook this cinnamon roll was amazing. Planning to share a whole page on the most perfect north Georgia lakeside cabin ASAP. I mean who doesn’t think cinnamon rolls are a good idea in a cabin?!

Giant Cinnamon Roll

Ingredients:

1/2 cup warm milk

1.5 tsp dry active yeast

1 TBSP brown sugar

For the dough:

Mix in a stand mixer-milk, sugar and yeast, and let set for about 5 minutes.

Add the following ingredients next:

4.5 TBSP melted butter

2 eggs

2.5 cups flour

1/2 tsp salt

1 heavy cap full of vanilla

Mix it all until begins to pull away from the sides. Honestly when we were away I just mixed by hand as well, and kneaded for a few minutes, if you are concerned about not having a standing mixer.

Let dough rise in bowl with plastic wrap at least an hour.

Roll dough out to a 9X12 rectangle shape.

Filling:

1/4 cup cane sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar

cinnamon

4 TBSP melted butter

Spread melted butter on dough.

Add sugars, and cinnamon over whole thing.

Cut 6 strips.

Roll one for the middle, and keep rolling strips all around it to make a giant roll.

I let mine sit and rise for 30 minutes to an hour, and covered in the fridge overnight.

Bake at 350 in a grease pie, or 9 inch cake pan covered with foil at least 30-45 minutes. Until no longer gooey.

Frosting:

2 TBSP heavy cream

2 cups powdered sugar

2 TBSP room temp cream cheese

3 TBSP room temp butter

1/4 tsp salt

Mix with hand mixer, and top the cinnamon roll when cooled!

Enjoy!
