Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
- 1 cup warm milk (110°F)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 3/4 cup rainbow sprinkles (jimmies)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Activate the yeast by combining warm milk with sugar and yeast in a small bowl; let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
- In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Create a well in the center and pour in melted butter along with the yeast mixture; combine until smooth.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8 minutes until elastic and slightly sticky.
- Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place until doubled (about 1 hour).
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle (1/4 inch thick) on a floured surface.
- Spread softened butter over the dough, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, and add rainbow sprinkles.
- Roll up tightly from one edge, slice into even pieces using unflavored dental floss or a sharp knife.
- Place slices in a greased baking dish, cover again, and let rise for another 30 minutes before baking at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes until golden.
- For icing, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and any leftover sprinkles; drizzle over warm rolls.
