Ingredients Dough • 1 cup whole milk (240 g) • ⅓ cup granulated sugar (70 g) • 3 tsp active dry yeast • 3¾ cups all-purpose flour (490 g) • 1 large egg • 1½ tsp salt • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, softened (85 g) • Optional: ⅓ cup heavy cream (80 g) for soaking after proofing Filling • ½ cup unsalted butter, very soft • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed • 1 tbsp molasses • ¼ tsp salt • 1 1/2 tbsp ground cinnamon • 1 tsp ground ginger • 1/4 tsp ground cloves • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg Frosting • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened • 2 cups powdered sugar • ¼ tsp salt • 1 tsp vanilla extract • 4 oz cream cheese, softened Instructions 1. Warm milk to 100–110°F. Stir in yeast and sugar, whisk, and let sit 10 minutes until foamy. 2. Add remaining dough ingredients. Mix until a dough forms. 3. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. 4. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise 60–90 minutes until doubled. 5. While it rises, make the filling. Mix butter, brown sugar, molasses, salt, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg until smooth. 6. Once dough has risen, punch it down and roll into a 12×16-inch rectangle. Spread filling evenly. 7. Roll tightly from the long side to form a log. Slice into 12 equal rolls using unflavored floss or string. 8. Arrange in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Let rise 30 minutes until puffy. 9. Optional: pour ⅓ cup heavy cream evenly over rolls before baking. 10. Bake at 350°F for 25–30 minutes until golden brown. 11. Beat butter, powdered sugar, and salt until fluffy. Add vanilla and cream cheese in small chunks, mixing until smooth. 12. Spread frosting over warm rolls so it melts slightly into the swirls. #gingerbread #cinnamonrolls #holiday #fyp #christmas - @bakedbybittersweet
