Step-by-Step Instructions to Make Red Velvet Cinnamon Rolls
Step 2
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy. This indicates that the yeast is active.
Step 4
Add the melted butter, eggs, red food coloring, and cocoa powder to the yeast mixture. Stir until well combined.
Step 5
Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment.
Step 6
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until it doubles in size.
Step 7
Step 2: Prepare the Filling
Step 8
In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until you have a smooth, spreadable mixture.
Step 9
Step 3: Assemble the Rolls
Step 10
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 11
Spread the cinnamon filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Step 12
Starting from the long side, tightly roll up the dough into a log. Pinch the seam to seal it.
Step 13
Cut the log into 12-15 equal slices using a sharp knife or dental floss for clean cuts.
Step 14
Place the rolls in a greased 9×13 inch baking pan. Cover with a towel and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes.
Step 15
Step 4: Bake the Rolls
Step 16
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 17
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and the centers are cooked through. Be careful not to overbake, as you want them to remain soft and gooey.
Step 18
Step 5: Make the Cream Cheese Frosting
Step 19
While the rolls are baking, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Add milk as needed to achieve your desired consistency.
Step 20
Step 6: Frost and Serve
Step 21
Once the rolls are out of the oven, let them cool for about 5 minutes before spreading the cream cheese frosting over the top.
Step 22
Serve warm and enjoy every decadent bite!
