Cinnamon Rolls

Hi everyone!
I uploaded my first video to my youtube channel at www.youtube.com/sweettreatschef! Please watch it. The first minute does not have sound unfortunately, but after that it is fine. 








Here is the recipe for the cinnamon rolls I made in the video:
I love making this recipe, and I hope you will too!

Cinnamon Rolls 
1/2 cup warm milk (105-115F)
1/2 cup warm water (105-115F)
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
1/3 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg
3-4 cups all-purpose flour


Filling:
4 Tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
4 Teaspoons cinnamon


Glaze
about 3/4 cup powdered sugar
a few tablespoons of milk


1. Combine milk and water in mixing bowl. Sprinkle yeast into the bowl and stir to dissolve. 
2. Stir in butter, sugar, salt, and egg. Add 2 cups of the flour and combine. Keep adding flour a little at a time until it reaches dough consistency. 
3. Turn onto floured surface and knead for several minutes until smooth and elastic, adding more flour if needed (dough should not be too sticky).
4. Form into a ball, put in greased bowl, and turn over. Cover and let rise for 1.5 hours.
5. Combine cinnamon and sugar. Punch down dough. Divide in half. Roll each half to a 9x15 inch rectangle. Spread 2 Tablespoons melted butter onto each half and sprinkle 1/2 of the cinnamon mixture over. Roll the dough tightly starting with the long side to form a log. Cut into 9 pieces and place upright in greased 8x8 pan. Cover and let rise for 40 minutes.
6. Bake cinnamon rolls at 375F for 25-30 minutes. Combine powdered sugar and milk for glaze and pour over hot cinnamon rolls. Serve warm.
