*** A WORD FROM THE KITCHEN ***I'm in heaven today with this secret cinnamon bun recipe
today. These are those yummy mall Cinnabons you can make
at home and it uses a bread machine to take some of the
work out of it too. You can convert by using the regular
yeast and mixing yourself but make sure to let the rolls
proof for about 1/2 hr after assembly.
Oh can't you just smell them? Like chocolate chip cookies
baking just makes you drool!
Enjoy!

RECIPE: CINNABON CINNAMON ROLLS CLONE*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
INGREDIENTS:
DOUGH
1/4 cup warm water
1 cup milk, room temperature
1 large egg, beaten
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 cups all purpose white flour
1/2 package instant vanilla pudding mix (3.4 oz box)
1 tablespoon bread machine yeast
FILLING
1 cup brown sugar -- packed 1 tablespoon cinnamon,
1/4 cup butter -- softened
CREAM CHEESE CINNAMON FROSTING
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 tablespoon milk
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
DIRECTIONS:
Dough: Add the dough ingredients, in the order listed,
to the bread machine and prepare using the dough setting.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out to an 18" by 30"
rectangle. The dough can also be handmade. If you use
regular yeast, you may want to let the rolls proof for
15-30 minutes after assembly.
Filling: In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon.
Spread the softened butter over the dough and evenly
sprinkle on the sugar and cinnamon mixture.
Starting at the long edge of the dough, roll up tightly.
Mark the roll every 2 inches. With a thread cut the
roll by placing the thread under the roll at your mark,
crisscross over and pull to cut. Place rolls into
greased 8" or 9" baking pans 2" apart. Cover and let
rise in a warm, draft free place until almost double,
approximately 1 hour. After rising, rolls should be
touching each other and the sides of the pan. Bake at
350 degrees F. for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden
brown.
Cream Cheese Cinnamon Frosting: In a small bowl, mix
cream cheese, butter, vanilla and milk. Add powdered
sugar and cinnamon and mix until smooth. Spread on warm
rolls and serve immediately.
Yield: 12 Rolls

GOOD BREAD MACHINE TIP:For the very best results open the machine and check the
dough during the first 5 to 10 minutes of the first kneading
cycle. Flour acts like a sponge and will absorb moisture to
varying degrees, depending on the humidity and barometric
pressure, so you may need to add more flour to liquid to
achieve a smooth, supple, soft ball of dough. If the dough
in the machine is either a wet, messy glob or a dry desert
and it hasn't yet begun the bake cycle, press Stop and add
a small amount of liquid or flour and press Start. Or cancel
the cycle and restart from the beginning. This should not
affect the bread.
