FROZEN BREAD DOUGH CINNAMON ROLLS
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Using some of the cold butter, grease a pan. Place the frozen bread loaf inside and grease a piece of plastic wrap to place over the dough. Thaw the dough in the refrigerator overnight from 10 to 12 hours, or for about 4 to 5 hours at room temperature.
- Once the time has elapsed, use the remaining cold butter to grease 2 8-inch round cake pans.
- In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, finely chopped pecans, and cinnamon. Mix well to combine and set aside.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the thawed bread dough into an 18x6-inch rectangle. The dough is quite elastic, so be patient when rolling it out to the recommended size. Let the dough rest for a few minutes now and then and it will relax and be easier to roll. Brush the melted butter evenly over the dough.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture over the buttered dough.
- Starting at the long end, carefully roll the dough up to form a log. Slice the log into 20 to 22 uniform slices.
- Arrange the formed rolls in the buttered cake pans. Move the pans to a draft-free place, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let them rise for about 1 1/2 hours, or until doubled in bulk.
- When the rolls have nearly doubled in size, preheat the oven to 350 F.
- Drizzle the heavy cream evenly over the rolls-about 3 tablespoons per pan-and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the cinnamon rolls to racks to cool until just slightly warm.
- While the rolls cool off, sift the powdered sugar into a medium bowl, add the milk and vanilla, and stir until well blended. For thinner icing, add more milk, a few drops at a time. To thicken, add more powdered sugar.
- Drizzle or spread the icing over the warm cinnamon rolls. Remove the cinnamon rolls from the pan while they are still warm and serve.
