Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1–2 tbsp red food coloring
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • For the icing:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2–3 tbsp milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pink and white sprinkles for topping

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder, and salt. Mix well.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the softened butter, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and red food coloring until smooth.
  3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  4. On a floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
  5. Spread the softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle the brown sugar mixed with ground cinnamon evenly on top.
  6. Carefully roll the dough into a tight log starting from one long side.
  7. Slice the log into 12 equal pieces and arrange them in a greased baking dish.
  8. Cover the dish with a kitchen towel and let the rolls rise in a warm area for about 30 minutes or until puffy.
  9. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  10. Bake the cinnamon rolls for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
  11. While the rolls are baking, make the icing by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add more milk if necessary to achieve a drizzling consistency.
  12. Once the cinnamon rolls are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly in the pan.
  13. Drizzle the icing generously over the warm cinnamon rolls and top with pink and white sprinkles.
  14. Serve warm and enjoy your Pink Velvet Cinnamon Roll Treats!
