The most amazing cinnamon rolls you'll ever try!!

These cinnamon rolls are seriously amazing. Everyone always loves them and asks me for the recipe. So.... i guess I'll be nice and share my secrets.... :)

1/4 c. warm water

1/4 c. butter, melted

1/2 (3.4oz) package instant vanilla pudding mix

1 c. warm milk

i egg, room temp

1 tbsp white sugar

1/2 tsp salt

4 c. bread flour

1 (.25oz) package active dry yeast

1/4 c. butter, softened

1 c. brown sugar

4 tsp ground cinnamon

3/4 c. chopped pecans

1/2 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened

1/4 c. butter, softened

1 c. confectioners' sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1 1/2 tsp milk

1. In bread machine: combine water, melted butter, vanilla pudding, warm milk, egg, 1 tbsp sugar, salt, bread flour, and yeast. Set machine to dough cycle, press start.

** if you don't have a bread machine... like me.... :( ... just mix ingredients like you would for any bread.. let yeast sit in warm milk for 10-15 minutes until foamy, then add other ingredients and mix.

2. When dough cycle has finished, turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a 17x10 inch rectangle. Spread with softened (i do it with melted) butter. In a small bowl, stir together brown sugar, cinnamon, and pecans. Sprinkle brown sugar mixture over dough.

3. Roll up dough, beginning with long side. Slice into 16 one-inch slices and place in buttered 9x13 pan. Let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees.

4. Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes. While rolls bake, stir together cream cheese, softened butter, confectioners sugar, vanilla and milk. Remove rolls from oven and top with frosting.

** at least in utah, these cinnamon rolls are usually done after about 10-12 minutes from my experience. Then again it could be crappy college ovens as well. Just make sure to watch them carefully.
