Soft and fluffy red velvet cinnamon rolls filled with cinnamon sugar and topped with a tangy cream cheese glaze for the perfect sweet treat.
- 1 box red velvet cake mix (around 15.25 oz)
- 1 packet active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
- 1 cup warm water
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine red velvet cake mix, yeast, warm water, melted butter, and eggs. Mix to form a dough.
- On a floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle. Sprinkle the cinnamon and brown sugar evenly over the dough.
- Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into 12 pieces. Arrange the slices in the prepared baking dish and let rise for 30 minutes.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While baking, prepare the glaze by mixing cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
- Drizzle the cream cheese glaze over the warm cinnamon rolls and serve.
Notes
- Make sure the water is warm but not hot to activate the yeast.
- Allow the dough to rise properly for soft, fluffy rolls.
- Leftover rolls can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
