Easy Homemade Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients:

Rolls:

3 1/2 C Warm water
3/4 C Sugar
1/2 C Oil
6 T. Yeast
1 T Salt
3 Eggs
10 1/2 C Flour

Filling:

1/4 C Butter (or margarine)
1 C Sugar
1 T Cinnamon

Icing:

1/2 C Butter (or margarine)
2 Dashes salt
2 t Vanilla extract
6 C Powdered Sugar
Almond milk (or milk of your choice)

Directions:

Mix warm water, sugar, oil, and yeast and let sit for 15 minutes.

Add salt, eggs, and flour. Mix together for 10 minutes, then sit for 10 minutes.

Oil a flat surface, dump out dough. Divide in half. Roll one half out into rectangle. Spread with melted butter and then with cinnamon-sugar mixture. Roll up tight, but not too tight.

Cut into 12 rolls and place on greased cookie sheet. Repeat with other half of dough.

Let rise (it will rise while baking as well).

Bake for 12-15 minutes at 400.

While the rolls are baking put your powdered sugar in a mixing bowl, along with melted butter, salt, and vanilla.

Slowly add milk until the frosting is the consistency you want.

Serve rolls warm and top with icing or cool and top with icing. Enjoy!
