  2. 30g (2 tablespoons) of granulated sugar
  3. 30g (2 tablespoons) of ground cinnamon
  4. 1/3 cup (80g) softened unsalted butter

  11. One or two tablespoons of milk (optional; for thinning)

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast.
  • Add eggs, melted butter, and warm milk. To make a dough, combine.
  • Mix with a stand mixer for 5 to 7 minutes, or knead on a floured board for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth.
  • The dough should double in size after 1 to 1.5 hours of rising in a covered, oiled bowl.
  • For the filling, combine cinnamon, granulated sugar, and brown sugar.
  • Roll the dough into a 16 x 12 inch (40 x 30 cm) rectangle after punching it down.
  • Cover the dough with softened butter, then top with walnuts and the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  • Tightly roll the dough, cut into 12 equal rolls, and place in a 9 x 13-inch (23 x 33 cm) baking dish that has been oiled.
  • For 30 to 45 minutes, cover and allow to rise. Set the oven temperature to 175°C (350°F).
    Bake for twenty to twenty-five minutes, or until golden.
  • For the frosting, beat butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until creamy. Spread over rolls that have cooled a little.
