  • Instructions:
    Heat milk to a light boil, turning off heat when it reaches the scalding point (with small bubbles across the top). Stir in melted butter, sugar, salt, and ground cardamom.

  • Let mixture cool until 인터넷바카라finger-warm인터넷바카라 (still quite warm, but just cool enough to touch). Stir in yeast and let sit for 10 minutes.
    Add flour into mixture 1/2 cup at a time until dough is firm and pulls away from the side of your mixing bowl (Tip: If using a stand mixer, exchange the mixing paddle for the dough hook after you인터넷바카라ve added the first 5 cups of flour. Use the dough hook to mix and knead the dough as you add the remaining 3-4 cups of flour).
    Cover the dough in the mixing bowl with a clean towel and let rise until doubled, about an hour.

  • Punch down the dough, then remove from bowl.
    On a floured counter, knead dough lightly until smooth and shiny. Divide dough into two halves. Roll each half of dough into a 12인터넷바카라 by 18인터넷바카라 rectangle. Brush each rectangle well with melted butter.
    Combine 2/3 cup sugar and 2 Tbsp. cinnamon; sprinkle evenly over the 2 rectangles.

  • Roll each rectangle crosswise, like a jelly roll, to form an 18인터넷바카라-long cylinder. Using a sharp or serrated knife, cut each cylinder into 20 equal slices. Place each slice into a paper cupcake wrapper and place on baking sheet. Cover with towel and allow to double in size, about 45 minutes. Preheat oven to 425º. Brush risen cinnamon rolls with egg wash and sprinkle with pearl sugar. Place in the middle of a preheated oven and bake for 7 minutes, or until done. Yield: 40 cinnamon roll.
