Fill your house with the aroma of cinnamon as you bake a pan of these cinnamon rolls, topped with a vanilla-flavored icing--a perfect special occasion brunch treat.
Ingredients:
rolls
1 cup mashed potatoes
1 cup potato water, reserved
3/4 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 cup hot water
2 envelopes fleischmann'sĀ® active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water (100 to 110 degrees f)
2 eggs
8 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
filling
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
icing
3 cups powdered sugar
6 tablespoons butter, softened
1 teaspoon spice islandsĀ® vanilla extract
5 tablespoons milk, or more as needed
Directions:
1. Combine potatoes, potato water, butter, sugar, salt and hot water in large mixer bowl. Stir until butter melts; set aside and let cool. Combine yeast and 1/2 cup warm water in small bowl. Add eggs, 2 cups flour and yeast mixture to potato mixture. Continue adding flour, 1 cup at a time until soft dough forms.
2. Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic (about 4 to 6 minutes), OR knead with electric mixer using dough hook. Place in a greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm, draft-free place about 1 hour, until doubled.
3. Punch dough down; divide in half. Roll one portion of dough on a lightly floured surface to a 12x18-inch rectangle. Spread with half the butter. Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle half of the mixture over surface. Roll up tightly, sealing edges. Cut into 12 slices. Place in greased 13x9-inch pan.
4. Repeat with remaining dough. Cover and let rise 30 to 45 minutes.
5. Bake in preheated 350 degrees F oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Cool for 15 minutes. Combine icing ingredients and drizzle over rolls.
