Pretty Darn Quick Cinnamon Rolls

Waking up too early this morning I was Jonesing for cinnamon rolls, but knew I didn't have time for yeast rolls to raise for an hour.  I found multiple recipes via Google that looked plausible....so I picked one and tweaked it a little.  It was really pretty tasty, and everything took under 50 minutes!

By 7 am, we were having a warm, gooey cinnamon roll!  Definitely a keeper!

Ingredients:
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup milk -- and add 1 tablespoon white vinegar to this to work with the baking soda

Filling:
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup brown sugar or 1 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon

Glaze:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup milk  (scant)    Start by adding less milk; then check consistency

Directions:
 
 Filliing:  Combine softened butter, brown sugar and cinnamon to form a crumbly mixture.
 
 
Dough: 
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.  Add butter after melting in microwave.
 
Stir in milk mixture to form a soft dough.
Roll out dough on a lightly floured into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.  Mine was about 12 x 18 inches...
Spread the filling on the rolled out dough.
 
 Roll up the rectangle, with a sharp knife slice into 18 small rolls (12 if you want them a little bigger).
 
 Bake for 20 min at 400°F.
  
Glaze:  Combine powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl and stir until smooth.

 Once rolls are baked, drizzle on glaze and serve warm.
YUM!!
