Brown Sugar and Honey Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Icing

Need something delicious to serve to all of your family on Christmas morning? I made these homemade cinnamon rolls this past weekend and delivered to a friend's house. She just had a baby about 2 weeks ago and I thought she might like not having to make breakfast and be able to just grab a delicious cinnamon roll.
Bryan tested one of these babies and he said they were the best to date that I have made. I definitely wanted to share the recipe with all of you.

Now, cinnamon rolls are generally very unhealthy for you. They are high in calories, refined carbs, and fat. These are not super healthy cinnamon rolls, but I did use substitutions to make them healthier than what you are going to find in a can or in the frozen aisle at the grocery store.

Brown Sugar and Honey Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Icing
Serves: 12 medium cinnamon rolls or 6 gigantic cinnamon rolls
Adapted by: http://tastykitchen.com/recipes/breads/gigantic-brown-sugar-and-honey-cinnamon-rolls/

Ingredients:
1 cup water
2 tablespoons softened butter
1 whole egg or 1/4 cup eggbeaters substitute (I used eggbeaters)
1 1/3 cups Bread Flour
2 cups King Arthur White Whole Wheat Flour
1/4 cup sugar or sugar substitute equivalent (I used Splenda baking sugar substitute)
1/2 teaspoon lite salt
3 teaspoons active dry yeast

2 tablespoons softened butter
1/4 cup sugar or sugar substitute
1/4 cup brown sugar or sugar substitute
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
honey to drizzle - Optional

Directions:
For the dough -
1) Add the water to the bread pan of your bread maker. Add the softened butter, egg, flour, sugar, and salt to the bread pan. Make a small hole in the middle of the bread pan and add your yeast to it. Star the bread machine to the dough cycle and let it do its magic. It takes about 1 1/2 hours in a bread machine.
2) When the dough is finished, prepare your surface to roll it out. I put down sheets of wax paper and pour flour on top of it so the dough doesn't stick to it. You can also use a silicone pastry mat or a wooden cutting board to roll the dough out.
3) Prepare a 13x9 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray
4) Place dough on floured surface and roll the dough out into a rectangular shape (approx 12 x 16)
5) Once the dough is rolled out, brush the softened butter or spread with a knife onto the entire surface of the dough.
6) sprinkle the brown sugar, sugar, and cinnamon on top of the buttered surface.
7) drizzle honey over the entire surface of the dough - OPTIONAL
8) Roll the dough and pinch each end of the dough
9) Cut the roll into 6 large pieces or 12 smaller pieces and place each piece in the baking dish. Cover the dish with a paper towel and let it sit for 1 hour to rise. The dough will double in size and that is how you know they are ready to bake.
10) Preheat oven to 375 degrees and bake for 15-25 minutes. It will depend on your oven as to how long these take. My oven took about 18 minutes. You know they are done when they are golden brown on top.
11) Ice the cinnamon rolls while they are still warm. See recipe below.

Cinnamon Roll Cream Cheese Icing
3 ounces reduced fat or fat free cream cheese (I used reduced fat)
1/4 cup or 4 tablespoons butter, softened
1 1/2 cups confections sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt

1) In a bowl, Beat cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer. Add confections sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Beat together until cream cheese frosting consistency. It took about 1 1/2 minutes of mixing to get the right consistency.
2) Ice the cinnamon rolls and serve

Enjoy! :)
