  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 4 cups bread flour
  • 1/4 cup instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbsp active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Frosting:

  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Place first 9 ingredients into a bread machine in the order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough setting (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed).

When cycle is completed, turn dough onto lightly floured surface. Roll into a 17 x 10-inch rectangle. Spread with butter; sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon. Roll up jellyroll style, starting from a long side; pinch seam to seal.

Cut into 21 slices. Place 12 slices, cut side down, in a greased 13 x 9-inch baking pan and 9 rolls in a 9-inch square baking pan. Cover; let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes.

Bake at 350° F for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire racks for 5 minutes. Frost while warm.

To make the frosting, in a mixing bowl, beat frosting ingredients. Frost warm rolls. Store in refrigerator.
