Did you know that if you work at Cinnabon, you have to sign a disclosure statement saying you will not share the ultra-secret recipe to make their delectable and decadent cinnamon rolls? It's true. Apparently, the memo got lost as a simple web search revealed the following recipe. And who better deserves breakfast in bed complete with a Cinnabon you made than mom? No one, that's who.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup warm milk (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)

  • 2 eggs, room temperature

  • 1/3 cup margarine, melted

  • 4 1/2 cups bread flour

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 cup white sugar

  • 2 1/2 teaspoons bread machine yeast

  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed

  • 2 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon

  • 1/3 cup butter, softened

  • 1 (3 ounces) package cream cheese, softened

  • 1/4 cup butter, softened

  • 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Place ingredients in the pan of the bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select dough cycle; press Start.

  2. After the dough has doubled in size turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, cover, and let rest for 10 minutes. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon.

  3. Roll dough into a 16x21 inch rectangle. Spread dough with 1/3 cup butter and sprinkle evenly with sugar/cinnamon mixture. Roll up dough and cut into 12 rolls. Place rolls in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  4. Bake rolls in preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes. While rolls are baking, beat together cream cheese, 1/4 cup butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Spread frosting on warm rolls before serving.
