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.
