Prepare the Dough:

• In a small bowl, warm the milk in the microwave or on the stovetop to about 110°F (warm to the touch). Sprinkle the yeast and sugar over the warm milk and stir to dissolve. Let it sit for 5 minutes, until the yeast is bubbly and activated.
• Tear the King’s Hawaiian Sweet Rolls into small pieces and place them in a large bowl. Pour the yeast mixture over the bread and allow it to soak for about 5 minutes to absorb the liquid.
• Add the melted butter, eggs, and salt to the bread mixture. Stir until everything is well combined.

Knead the Dough:

• Turn the mixture out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time.
• Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.

Make the Cinnamon Filling:

• While the dough is rising, prepare the cinnamon filling by combining the softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Stir until smooth and spreadable.

Assemble the Rolls:

• Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Roll the dough out onto a lightly floured surface into a rectangle, about 12×18 inches.
• Spread the cinnamon filling evenly over the dough, leaving about 1/2 inch of space around the edges.
• Starting from the long edge, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Slice the dough into 12 even rolls.

Bake the Cinnamon Rolls:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
• Arrange the rolls in the baking dish, placing them close together. Cover the dish with a clean towel and let the rolls rise for another 30 minutes, until puffed up.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown on top and cooked through.

Prepare the Glaze:

• While the cinnamon rolls are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth and pourable.

Glaze the Rolls:

• Once the cinnamon rolls are out of the oven, allow them to cool for about 5 minutes before drizzling the glaze over the warm rolls.

Serve and Enjoy:

• Serve the cinnamon rolls warm, and enjoy the sweet, gooey goodness!
