1 Hour Cinnamon Rolls (from Ashley Peterson)

Is it even Conference without cinnamon rolls? :)

1 Hour Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients:
Rolls:
2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons butter
1 egg
1 package instant (quick rise) yeast (or 2 1/4 teaspoons)
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon salt

Filling:
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup butter, room temperature
1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract

Vanilla Glaze:
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2-3 Tablespoons milk

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
2. In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flour, yeast, and salt.
3. In a small microwave safe bowl, combine the sugar, butter, water, and milk. Heat in the microwave until the butter is almost melted. (about 1 1/2 minutes)
4. Gradually add the milk mixture into the flour mixture. Add the egg and mix until a soft, sticky dough forms.
5. If you have a stand mixer, use the dough hook and set on the lowest setting for 4 minutes. If you don't have a stand mixer, knead by hand on a lightly floured surface for 3-4 minutes until the dough becomes elastic.
6. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and allow it to rest on the counter for 5 minutes.
7. While the dough is resting, make the filling mixture. Combine all of the filling ingredients, except for the butter, in a small mixing bowl.
8. Once the dough has rested, roll it out on a lightly floured surface until it measures out to be a 16 x 9 inch rectangle. Spread the butter over the top of the rolled dough, then sprinkle the filling mixture on top.
10. Tightly roll the dough and cut into 12 pieces. (You can use dental floss for this.)
11. Place the rolls into a lightly greased 9 x 13 baking dish and gently press a piece of aluminum foil over the top. Turn OFF your oven and place the covered rolls inside to rise for 25 minutes.
12. While the rolls are rising, make the vanilla glaze. Combine all ingredients in a small mixing bowl and beat by hand or with a hand mixer until smooth.
13. After 25 minutes, remove the rolls from the oven. Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Once heated, remove the aluminum foil and bake the rolls for 15-18 minutes, until the centers of the rolls are golden brown.
14. Allow the rolls to cool for a few minutes and then spread the vanilla glaze over the tops of the rolls. Enjoy!
