Edible Intestines Cinnamon Rolls

A whimsical twist on traditional cinnamon rolls that brings fun and deliciousness to your breakfast table.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2-4 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until bubbly. Mix in melted butter and eggs until well combined.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Gradually add this to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough: Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place it in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  4. Roll out the dough: Once risen, punch down the dough and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll it out into a rectangle (roughly 16×12 inches).
  5. Spread the filling: Spread the softened butter over the dough. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together, then sprinkle evenly over the buttered surface.
  6. Shape the rolls: Starting from one long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut into 12 equal pieces, shaping each piece into a worm-like shape.
  7. Second rise: Cover the rolls loosely with a towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
  8. Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  9. Make the icing: Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  10. Ice the rolls: Allow the rolls to cool for about 10 minutes before drizzling the icing over them.

Notes

Ensure the dough rises fully for light and fluffy rolls. Adjust icing thickness as needed with milk.
