Ingredients
Scale
For the Rolls:
- 2 cups Bisquick mix
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup sugar
- ¼ cup melted butter
- 1 egg
For the Filling:
- ¼ cup melted butter
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
For the Glaze:

Instructions
-
Prepare the Dough:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of Bisquick mix, ½ cup of milk, ¼ cup of melted butter, ¼ cup of sugar, and 1 egg. Stir until a soft dough forms.
-
Roll Out the Dough:
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle, about ¼ inch thick.
-
Add the Filling:
- Spread ¼ cup of melted butter evenly over the rolled-out dough.
- In a small bowl, mix ½ cup of brown sugar with 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough.
-
Roll and Slice:
- Carefully roll the dough into a log, starting from the long side. Pinch the edges to seal.
- Cut the rolled dough into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking dish.
-
Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
-
Prepare the Glaze:
- While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze by mixing 1 cup of powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons of milk, and ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth.
-
Glaze the Rolls:
- Once the cinnamon rolls are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Drizzle the prepared glaze over the warm rolls.
Notes
- For an extra touch, sprinkle some chopped nuts (like pecans or walnuts) on top before baking.
- You can make the dough ahead of time and refrigerate it, then bake the rolls fresh in the morning.
- If you prefer a thicker glaze, you can add more powdered sugar or reduce the milk.
