01

Prepare the dough by mixing the flour, yeast, milk, egg yolks, whole egg, honey, salt, sugar, and melted butter. Knead until smooth, cover, and let it rise until doubled in size.

02

In a small bowl, mix the sugar, cinnamon, and soft butter to create the sweet filling.

03

Roll out the risen dough on a flat surface into a large, even rectangle.

04

Spread the cinnamon-butter filling evenly over the rolled out dough.

05

Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut it into even slices to form the cinnamon rolls.

06

Place the rolls into a baking dish and pour a splash of milk over them to keep them extra soft while baking.

07

Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 25 minutes until golden brown.

08

While the rolls bake, prepare the frosting by whisking together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, butter, and cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

09

Spread the creamy frosting generously over the cinnamon rolls while they are still warm.
