Perfect Maple Cinnamon Rolls

ByAlexis

Perfect Maple Cinnamon Rolls.  These are such a crowd pleaser.  The dough is easy to make and only needs to rise for about 20 minutes.  The filling is basic and buttery.  It is the maple frosting that takes these rolls over the top.  These truly are the Perfect Maple Cinnamon Rolls.

I have been making the Perfect Maple Cinnamon Rolls for about 5 years now.  I tend to double the recipe and then stick the second batch in the freezer for a quick treat anytime we have guests or need to deliver treats to school.

This recipe will have 3 parts to it.

1. The Dough.  This is so easy and basic, don't be afraid if you have never worked with yeast dough before.  This is a great place to start if you have a stand mixer.

2.  The filling.  Only 3 ingredients and butter is the star of the show.

3. The Frosting.  Oh good gracious, I can't even smell maple flavoring without wanting to make these rolls ASAP.  There is something about this frosting that is pure magic....trust me....this is worth licking the bowl when you are done.

These are full-fat, have all the calories, real sugar and butter, and LOTS of love.  I don't mess when it comes to sweet rolls served warm.  There is no room for your "diet" in this recipe.

  1. Wow, these look amazing! Do you think it would be okay to substitute maple syrup for the maple flavoring? And would it be a straight swap or should I adjust the amount? I don't have a stand mixer so I'm not sure how that'll affect my attempt but I think I'm going to try it anyway for Christmas morning!
