Tips:

  • Use fresh, active dry yeast. Old or inactive yeast will not produce a good rise in the dough.
  • Proof the yeast in warm milk before adding it to the dough. This will help to activate the yeast and ensure that it is working properly.
  • Be careful not to over-mix the dough. Over-mixing will make the dough tough.
  • Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This usually takes about 1 hour.
  • Punch down the dough and roll it out into a rectangle. Spread the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the dough and roll it up tightly.
  • Cut the dough into 12 rolls and place them in a greased baking dish.
  • Cover the rolls and let them rise again for about 30 minutes, or until they have nearly doubled in size.
  • Bake the rolls in a preheated oven until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve the rolls warm with butter, cream cheese frosting, or your favorite topping.
