Ingredients needed

For the dough:

- 100 g sugar
- 80 g butter (melted, plus a little for greasing)
- 2 eggs
- 25 g fresh yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 cups (about 500 g) all-purpose flour

For the filling:
- 200 g brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons cinnamon (preferably freshly ground)

For the glaze:
- 100 g cream cheese (Almette or Philadelphia)
- 90 g butter (soft)
- 195 g powdered sugar

Step by step: Your guide to a perfect result

Step 1: Preparing the dough
Start by dissolving the yeast in the warm milk. Make sure the milk is not too hot, as it can kill the yeast. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and melted butter. Make a well in the center and pour in the milk-yeast mixture. Add the eggs and gently mix with a spatula or by hand until the ingredients begin to come together.

Helpful tips: You can use high-quality flour for a fluffier dough. If you have it on hand, you can also add a teaspoon of vanilla extract for extra flavor.

Step 2: Kneading the dough
Knead the dough for about 10 minutes. If it is too sticky, gradually add a little flour, but be careful not to dry it out. The dough should be elastic and smooth. Once you finish kneading, cover the bowl with a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place until it doubles in size (about 1 hour).

Step 3: Preparing the filling
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon. Make sure the mixture is uniform. This mixture will add an intense flavor to your rolls.

Step 4: Shaping the rolls
After the dough has risen, sprinkle flour on the work surface and roll it out into a rectangular sheet about 45 x 70 cm and 0.5 cm thick. Spread the soft butter over the surface, then evenly sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon mixture.

Step 5: Rolling the dough
Carefully roll the dough from one end to the other, forming a tight cylinder. Use a ruler or knife to mark the roll into portions of about 5 cm, then cut them. You can use a thread to cut the rolls to keep their beautiful shape.

Step 6: Placing and second rising
Place the rolls in a baking dish lined with greased parchment paper. Leave space between them, as they will puff up during baking. Let them rise for another 25 minutes.

Step 7: Baking
Preheat the oven to 190 degrees Celsius. Bake the rolls for about 25 minutes, or until they are golden and fluffy.

Step 8: Glazing
While the rolls are baking, you can prepare the glaze. In a bowl, mix the cream cheese with the soft butter and powdered sugar until you achieve a smooth and homogeneous mixture.

Step 9: Serving
After you take the rolls out of the oven, let them cool for 5 minutes, then pour the glaze over them. This step is essential, as the glaze will melt and absorb into the rolls, making them even more delicious.

Serving suggestions and variations
You can serve the Cinnabon rolls warm, alongside a cup of coffee or tea. Additionally, for a personal touch, you can add toasted pecans or hazelnuts to the filling mixture. Another delicious variation would be to replace the brown sugar with a mix of peanut butter and chocolate for a whole new experience.

Nutritional benefits
Although these delights are a dessert, the ingredients combined can also offer some nutritional benefits. Cinnamon, for example, is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Butter provides healthy fats that can contribute to a balanced diet, while cream cheese adds a protein boost.
