Cinnamon Rolls

Directions

For Dough:

1. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Incorporate the softened butter by hand.
2. In a separate bowl, beat together milk and egg. Add to the flour mixture and combine until a dough forms. Do not over-work the dough.
3. Roll dough onto a floured surface until about 15 x 10-inches.

For Filling:

4. Place nuts in a dry skillet set over medium-low heat and cook 5–6 minutes, stirring constantly to avoid uneven browning. Skip this step if not using nuts. 
5. Spread the butter evenly over the dough and sprinkle it with brown sugar.
6. Sprinkle the cinnamon and toasted nuts, if using, over the dough.

For Topping:

7. Stir together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla in a small bowl.

For Assembly:

8. Roll up dough tightly along the longer length to create a log.
9. Cut the log into 12 slices.
10. Grease a 13 x 9-inch pan using nonstick cooking spray, place rolls in pan, cover pan with a towel, and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
11. Preheat oven to 375°F.
12. Remove towel and bake 25–30 minutes until golden.
13. Cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
14. Drizzle topping over the rolls and serve warm.
