Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups (591 ml) Bisquick mix
- 1 cup (200 g) brown sugar
- 3/4 cup (170 g) butter, melted and cooled
- 1 cup (120 g) powdered sugar
Baking and Binding Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup (79 ml) milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated sugar
Glaze and Topping Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 12 tablespoons (177 ml) milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- (Optional) 1/2 cup (60 g) chopped nuts
Instructions
- Create a smooth, uniform dough by thoroughly blending Bisquick mix with milk and egg until just incorporated, avoiding overmixing.
- Craft the aromatic filling by combining brown sugar, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and chopped nuts, then integrate melted butter to create a rich, cohesive mixture.
- Dust a clean work surface with flour and gently roll the dough to approximately 1/2 inch thickness, ensuring an even rectangular shape.
- Generously spread the melted butter across the rolled dough, then evenly distribute the prepared sugar-cinnamon mixture, covering the entire surface.
- Carefully roll the dough into a tight log, using steady pressure to maintain an even cylindrical shape.
- Slice the log into 1-inch thick rounds using a sharp knife, creating uniform cinnamon roll pieces.
- Arrange the rolls in a generously greased 9×13-inch baking pan, allowing slight spacing between each piece for expansion.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and bake for 25-30 minutes, watching for a golden-brown top and fully cooked center.
- Prepare a smooth glaze by whisking powdered sugar with milk and vanilla until achieving a silky, pourable consistency.
- Remove rolls from oven and immediately drizzle with the prepared glaze while still warm, allowing it to melt slightly into the crevices.
Notes
- Ensure ingredients are at room temperature for smoother mixing and better dough consistency.
- Use a light touch when mixing Bisquick dough to prevent tough, dense rolls; mix just until ingredients combine.
- For extra softness, brush melted butter on top of rolls immediately after baking to create a tender, golden crust.
- Customize the recipe by swapping nuts with raisins, chocolate chips, or omitting them entirely for nut-free dietary needs.
