Cinnamon Buns

Steve’s Super Gooey Cinnamon Buns (Death by Cinnbun)




Prep Time: 3-4 hours

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Serving Size: 8

1 cup Milk (warmed to 120 degrees

1 Egg, beaten 

5 tablespoons Butter, melted 

3 tablespoons Water 

1 ounce package of instant full sugar Vanilla Pudding

1 ounce package of instant full sugar Butterscotch Pudding

4 cups all purpose flour 

1/4 cup white Sugar 

1/2 teaspoon Salt 

5 teaspoons Bread Yeast 

4 teaspoons Cinnamon

1 teaspoon Vanilla

Filling:

3/4 cup Butter, softened 

1 1/2 cup packed Brown Sugar 

4 teaspoons ground Cinnamon 

Frosting:

2 teaspoon Milk 

2 cups Confectioners' Sugar 

1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

In a large mixing bowl, mix together milk, egg, melted butter, water, sugar, salt, vanilla and yeast and set aside for 5 minutes. 

Add the two powdered puddings into the wet mix, followed by cinnamon. When mixed thoroughly, add in 3 cups of flour and begin mixing. Add in the remaining flour a little at a time until you get a pizza dough consistency and the dough does not stick readily to the side of the bowl. Remove the dough from the bowl and knead for 5 minutes. Place the dough in the bowl and cover with a clean dish towel. Set in a warm place until the dough doubles. Punch down the dough, reform into a ball and allow the dough to double again. 

While the dough is doubling a second time prepare the filling. Mix softened butter (not melted) with brown sugar, vanilla and cinnamon into a crumbly mixture. 

When the dough is finished doubling spread it into a large rectangle on a floured surface. The dough should be spread out about 2 feet by 16 inches. Spread the crumbled brown sugar evenly across the dough leaving about 1 inch from the top open. Beginning from the bottom, slowly and carefully roll the entire width of the dough up toward the top without pushing the brown sugar filling out. Use a bit of butter or milk to seal the top end. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough roll into 3 inch slices resulting in 8 individual buns. Place 4 buns in each of two 9 x 9 buttered and sugared glass pans (not metal) and sprinkle the tops of the buns with more brown sugar. Cover the buns and let them rise for an another hour or until they rise significantly. 

Bake at 350 degree for 18—20 minutes. 

While baking mix the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla and set aside. 

When the buns are done, let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes then drizzle the frosting mix on top. Serve warm or cold. Does not need to be refrigerated.
