 Heavenly Cinnamon-Walnut Swirl Rolls with Luscious Cream Cheese Glaze

Ingredients:

For the Dough:

4 cups all-purpose flour

1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeast

1 cup warm milk

⅓ cup granulated sugar

⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted

2 large eggs

½ teaspoon salt

For the Filling:

½ cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup brown sugar, packed

2 tablespoons ground cinnamon

1 cup walnuts, chopped

For the Cream Cheese Frosting:

4 oz cream cheese, softened

¼ cup unsalted butter, softened

1 ½ cups powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk and let sit for 5–10 minutes until frothy.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, eggs, melted butter, and the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for 6–8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1–2 hours until doubled in size.

Roll out the dough into a large rectangle. Spread softened butter evenly, then sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon, and chopped walnuts.

Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut into 12 even rolls. Arrange in a greased baking dish.

Cover and let rise again for 30–45 minutes until puffy.

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 25–30 minutes, until golden brown.

While rolls bake, prepare the frosting by beating cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.

Spread frosting over warm rolls before serving.
