Ingredients

  • Copycat Rolls
    • 1 packet active dry yeast
    • 1 1/4 cups warm milk (~ 110 degrees F)
    • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
    • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
    • 1 large egg, room temperature
    • 1 tsp kosher salt
    • 3 1/2 – 4 cups AP flour (plus more for kneading)
    • 3 Tbs unsalted butter, melted
  • Copycat Cinnamon Butter
    • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
    • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
    • 2 Tablespoons honey
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
    • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

  • Copycat Rolls
    1. Pour the warm milk to the bowl of a stand mixer and add the yeast & sugar. Allow the yeast to wake up and become foamy (about 5 minutes).
    2. Add to foamy yeast mixture, 1/4 cup butter, egg, salt, and 2 cups of flour. Using the paddle attachment, beat the mixture on medium speed until smooth.
    3. Gradually add the rest of the flour until a soft ball of dough forms (you may not need the full 4 cups of flour). Increase the mixer speed to medium high and beat for 2-3 minutes longer. The dough should be tacky but not sticky. If sticky, add more flour 1 tablespoon at a time until tacky.
    4. Lightly grease a large bowl and place the dough into the bowl, turning once to coat all sides with the oil. Cover the bowl and set in a warm place to double in size (about 1 hour).
    5. Gently punch down the dough and lightly flour a work surface. Turn the dough out of the bowl and knead lightly.
    6. Prepare the baking pans by lining with parchment paper or spray lightly with cooking spray.
    7. Roll the dough out to a 12 x 18 rectangle, about 1/2 inch thick.
    8. Cut the dough into 24 equal pieces.
    9. Cover the dough and let rise again for another hour.
    10. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
    11. Bake rolls for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
    12. Remove from the oven and brush with melted butter.
    13. Serve with cinnamon butter & enjoy!
