**Ingredients:**
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
– 1/2 cup milk
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
**For the Cinnamon Sugar Filling:**
– 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
**For the Glaze:**
– 1 cup powdered sugar
– 2-3 tablespoons milk
– 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
**Instructions:**
1. **Preheat and Prep:** Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. **Make the Dough:** In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. **Add Wet Ingredients:** Pour in the milk and vanilla extract. Stir gently with a spatula until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
4. **Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Filling:** In a separate bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon for the filling.
5. **Roll Out the Dough:** On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
6. **Fill and Shape the Dough:** Brush the melted butter onto the rolled-out dough, leaving a border around the edges. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar filling evenly over the buttered dough. Starting from one of the longer edges, tightly roll up the dough into a log.
7. **Cut into Rolls:** Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 1-inch slices. Place the rolls in the prepared baking dish, leaving a little space between each piece for them to expand while baking.
8. **Bake and Golden Brown:** Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
9. **Make the Glaze:** In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if needed.
10. **Glaze and Serve:** Drizzle the glaze over the warm cinnamon rolls and serve immediately for a delightful and delicious treat that will have everyone asking for seconds.
