THE BEST PARKER HOUSE ROLLS
These Parker House rolls are super indulgent thanks to plenty of butter mixed in and brushed on top. Milk and eggs enrich the dough, lending a perfectly tender texture. A sprinkle of flaky sea salt adds a welcome bit of contrast and crunch. These rolls are best served fresh and warm.

Steps:
- Heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium-high until it just starts to simmer, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter and the sugar until melted. Set aside to cool.
- Put the warm water in a small liquid measuring cup and stir in the yeast. Let it sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
- Combine the milk mixture, yeast mixture, eggs, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and half the flour in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Mix on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Slowly add the remaining flour, mixing until a smooth ball forms. Increase the speed to medium-high and continue to knead the dough until very smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Coat a large bowl with nonstick cooking spray, then place the dough inside. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 60 to 75 minutes.
- Melt the remaining 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Set aside.
- Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray, line with parchment paper then spray the paper.
- Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour. Punch down the dough and turn it out onto the prepared surface. Pat into an even thickness.
- Use a chef's knife or bench scraper to divide the dough into 24 pieces, then shape into balls to create small rolls. Place in the prepared baking dish in rows of 4 by 6, then brush the tops of the rolls with 4 tablespoons of the melted butter. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled in size, 30 to 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven 350 degrees F.
- Remove the plastic wrap and sprinkle the rolls lightly with flaky sea salt. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with the remaining 4 tablespoons melted butter. Serve warm.

Steps:
- Sift 2 cups flour, sugar, and salt for dough together into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Stir in yeast. Add butter and blend at low speed until combined. Add hot water (the hottest it comes from your tap) all at once with the mixer running. Mix in egg until fully incorporated. Add remaining 2 cups flour and mix briefly until dough is soft and flour is incorporated.
- Change to the dough hook and knead dough for 10 minutes. If dough does not knead, you may need to add a little bit more flour carefully while the mixer is running. Once the dough climbs up the dough hook you have the right consistency. Make dough into a ball.
- Oil a bowl. Place the dough into the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a cloth and let sit until doubled in size, 1 to 2 hours.
- Cover your countertop with flour and roll dough out to a large rectangle, roughly 18x24 inches. Sprinkle brown sugar, pecans, and cinnamon on the dough, then pour melted butter over top. Roll the dough up from the longer side and cut into twelve 2-inch pieces. Place the pieces in a baking pan or on a baking stone. Cover with a cloth and let rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes. Keep a close eye on the rolls; if they start to fall or look deflated at all, bake them immediately.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Bake the rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown, 6 to 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine confectioners' sugar, butter, cream cheese, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until no lumps of cream cheese remain. Whip for 2 to 3 more minutes on medium speed.
- Spread icing on warm rolls and serve.

Tips:
- Activate the yeast properly: Ensure the yeast is fresh and use warm milk or water (105-115°F) to activate it. If the liquid is too hot, it will kill the yeast, while if it's too cold, it won't activate properly.
- Knead the dough well: Kneading the dough develops the gluten, which gives the cinnamon rolls their chewy texture. Knead the dough for at least 5-7 minutes, or until it's smooth and elastic.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place: This will help the dough double in size and become light and airy. Place the dough in a warm spot, such as a turned-off oven with a bowl of hot water, for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
- Roll out the dough evenly: Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough into a large rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick. Make sure the dough is均匀 rolled out, so that the cinnamon rolls are all the same size.
- Spread the filling evenly: Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough. Make sure to spread the filling all the way to the edges, so that each cinnamon roll has plenty of flavor.
- Roll up the dough tightly: Starting from one of the long edges, roll up the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the edges together to seal the seam.
- Cut the cinnamon rolls evenly: Use a sharp knife to cut the cinnamon roll log into evenly sized pieces. Make sure to cut the rolls straight down, so that they have a nice, even shape.
- Place the cinnamon rolls in a greased baking dish: Arrange the cinnamon rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, leaving a little space between each roll. This will allow them to rise and expand.
- Bake the cinnamon rolls until golden brown: Bake the cinnamon rolls in a preheated oven at 350°F for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top and cooked through.
- Let the cinnamon rolls cool slightly before serving: Let the cinnamon rolls cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help them set and make them easier to handle.
