  • After adding your cinnamon roll mixture, next we will roll the cinnamon roll dough up tightly, and then slice into rolls.
  • Use a knife to slice the rolls or Run a piece of thread across the bottom of the cinnamon rolls, bring it over the rolls, crossing the threads over each other, then pull tightly to slice!
  • Place the cinnamon rolls into a prepared casserole dish, leaving a little space between each roll.
  • After shaping and cutting your cinnamon rolls, place your cinnamon rolls in a warm place to rise for 30 minutes, or until doubled in sizeAfter your rolls have doubled in side
  • Bake them at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Cream Cheese Icing

  • Once your cinnamon rolls are done baking, let them cool.
  • While the cinnamon rolls are cooling off, we will make our cream cheese frosting.
  • Using a stand mixer, Beat powdered sugar and butter together until combined.
  • Add cream cheese, vanilla and lemon juice then mix again until combined.
  • Once your icing is mixed, spread onto the cinnamon rolls while they are still warm. This will allow the icing to get down in the edges.
  • Serve warm and enjoy!
