Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cups leftover mashed potatoes (any flavor), hot, cold or luke warm all work!
1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons hot milk
1 Tablespoons yeast
1/4 cup warm water
2 Tablespoons + 1/2 cup sugar + 2 cups sugar, divided
2 large eggs
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup salted butter, melted
4 1/4 cups flour
2 1/2 cups of melted butter (or more), divided. I use salted
LOTS of cinnamon. You want to be generous.
--------------------------
1 (8 ounce) package of cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 cup butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups powdered sugar
1 Tablespoon heavy whipping cream (or milk)

Steps:

  • In a mixer with a dough hook, blend mashed potatoes and milk. Let cool to a warm but not hot temperature. Add yeast, water and 2 Tablespoons of sugar. Mix well and cover with a dish towel. Let mixture sit for 5 - 10 minutes, allowing yeast to poof and activate. Add eggs, 1/2 cup sugar, salt, and melted butter. Blend well. Add flour 1/2 cup at a time until all flour has been mixed in or until dough no longer sticks to the sides of bowl. Coat a large bowl with cooking spray. Add dough and then spray top of dough with cooking spray. Cover with a dish towel and let sit for 1 hour in a draft free spot or until mixture is doubled in size. After mixture has doubled, take all your anger out on it and punch it a few times. Preheat oven to 350*F. Prepare a jelly roll cookie sheet pan by spraying generously with cooking spray or use non-stick foil or a liner. Grab half the dough and roll out into a rectangle. Dough should be a quarter inch thick. The thicker the dough, the thicker the cinnamon rolls. Pour 1 1/4 cup melted butter gently over dough. Spread around to cover entire dough. Sprinkle with 1 cup of sugar and a generous amount of cinnamon. Using your hands or a spatula, spread cinnamon and sugar around until butter is absorbed into it. Starting with the long side, roll up gently like a cinnamon log. Using a knife or dental floss, cut cinnamon rolls into 3/4 inch thick slices. Place on prepared jelly roll pan. Once pan is filled, bake for 15 - 18 minutes or until golden. Cinnamon rolls with double or triple in size. Repeat the same process for the other half of the dough. -------------------------- In a separate bowl combine cream cheese and butter. Mix well. Add vanilla and powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time mixing well after each addition until all sugar is incorporated. Add whipping cream and blend. Spread on cooled cinnamon rolls and devour!

These cinnamon rolls were a disappointment. The dough was dry and tough, and the cinnamon sugar filling was too sweet. I won't be making these again.
