Heart-Shaped Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/3 cup butter
- 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 packet active quick rise yeast
- 1 large egg
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 tablespoons cinnamon
- maraschino cherry
- powdered sugar
Instructions
- In a saucepan over medium heat, add the milk and butter. Stir until melted, then remove from heat.
- n a mixing bowl, combine 2 1/4 cups of flour, sugar, and salt. Add the yeast and the milk mixture. Stir to combine, then add the egg and mix until well incorporated.
- Using the dough hook attachment on your mixer, knead while slowly adding in 1 cup of flour until the dough forms a ball and pulls away from the edges of the bowl. Alternatively, you can knead by hand.
- Let the dough rest for 10 minutes, then preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C).
- On a floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle. Spread melted butter over the surface, then combine the cinnamon and sugar, and sprinkle the mixture evenly on top.
- Cut the dough into 10 strips and shape each strip into a heart. Transfer the cinnamon rolls to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover the rolls with a damp towel and let them rise for 25 minutes.
- Place a cherry in each cinnamon roll. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until slightly golden. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm.
