Instructions
Prepare dough
- Place milk, eggs, margarine, flour, salt, white sugar, and yeast in the pan of a bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select dough cycle; press Start.
- When dough has doubled in size, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Cover it with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Roll dough on a lightly floured surface to a 16×21-inch rectangle.
Prepare filling
- Combine brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Spread softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over top.
Assemble
- Starting at the longer end, roll up the dough; cut into 12 rolls. Place rolls in a lightly greased 9×13-inch baking pan. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚ C).
- Bake rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
While rolls are baking, prepare icing
- Beat confectioners’ sugar, butter, cream cheese, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla, and salt until creamy.
- Spread icing on warm rolls before serving.
