Ingredients

• Frozen bread dough (1 pound)
• Unsalted butter (1/4 cup, melted)
• Granulated sugar (1/2 cup)
• Ground cinnamon (2 tablespoons)
• Brown sugar (1/2 cup)
• Powdered sugar (1 cup)
• Milk (2 tablespoons)
• Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon)

Directions

1. Thaw the frozen bread dough according to the package instructions. It usually takes about 2-3 hours.
2. Once the dough is thawed, lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough into a rectangular shape.
3. Brush the melted butter evenly over the rolled out dough.
4. In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough.
5. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
6. Starting from one of the longer sides of the rectangle, tightly roll the dough into a log shape.
7. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough log into 12 equal pieces.
8. Place the cinnamon rolls in a greased baking dish, leaving a bit of space between each roll.
9. Cover the baking dish with a clean kitchen towel and let the rolls rise in a warm place for 30-45 minutes, or until they have doubled in size.
10. While the rolls are rising, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
11. Once the rolls have risen, bake them in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
12. While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze by mixing powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Whisk until smooth.
13. Once the rolls are out of the oven, drizzle the glaze over them while they are still warm.
14. Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
