Instructions:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm milk, melted butter, and egg.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 5-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with a towel. Let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
While the dough is rising, make the filling. In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until well combined.
After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a large rectangle.
Spread the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the dough.
Starting at one end, roll the dough tightly into a log shape.
Cut the log into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
Cover the pan with a towel and let the rolls rise for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the cinnamon rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
While the rolls are baking, make the cream cheese frosting. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk, and mix until the frosting is smooth and creamy.
When the rolls are finished baking, let them cool for 5-10 minutes before spreading the frosting on top.
Serve warm and enjoy!
