Cinnamon Rolls

Cinnamon Rolls

These are one of the and softest and best homemade cinnamon rolls ever. They taste divine and the smell when they come out of the oven is irresistible. This is a must-try recipe and taste the best when they come hot out of the oven. The dough is a bit wet & sticky to work with and that is how we need it, do not add extra flour. You can even make a glaze to top the cinnamon rolls but its completely fine if you want to have plain cinnamon rolls. I have made a simple sugar glaze here but you can add in 2 tablespoons of cream cheese to get a cream cheese glaze.
