The Best Sweet Dough Recipe ! Homemade Cinnamon Rolls! 

God gave you the most peaceful voice. I am always amazed at how much peace comes from watching your videos. Thank you for all you do for us!!!

A tip that I have been using for 40 years or more is to not use a knife to cut your roll circles but to take a piece of dental floss slide it under the cinnamon roll log and using both sides of the floss, pull each side to the opposite side so that it cleanly cuts the dough into circles. You can also use dental floss to cut a cake with no messy knife. I have been making homemade cinnamon rolls since 1965.

I just made this wonderful recipe, and they turned out delicious. The dough is so tender and light that you only need a little drizzle of your favorite frosting, so the sweet dough is the main attraction. I'm not typically a Baker, so my son came out of his room (shocker) and followed his nose to the kitchen, and we had a nice moment together eating the cinnamon rolls.

I've probably watched this recipe 20 times in the last couple of years. I finally got a stand mixer for Christmas and plan to give this recipe a try! I can't wait!!!

Dear Ms. Lori, I am 65 years old and today, for the first time, I made a bread product that was light and fluffy, thanks to sharing your cinnamon roll recipe. Thank you!! It was delicious, too!

Never been to a school that made homemade food. Be so good if our kids today got good food in schools.

You all are such a delight, your children are so blessed to have you all as parents

I just love watching you cook...you do everything so naturally. And i love the simplicity ...just your calm peaceful voice. I feel like im sitting in your kitchen having a coffee as you cook. Thank you❤

My mother worked in the high School lunchroom for our whole family of 11 kids. When I was going to high school along with some brothers and sisters they had a morning breakfast. In that morning breakfast they offered cinnamon rolls and they were massive! Your cinnamon rolls remind me of that time in my life that I took for granted. A time when there was very little to worry about and good food was always around me. Today, watching your video I get a little sense of peace and comfort. My mom is still around and so is my dad and she'll be 83 this year I think, not 100% sure. God bless you ma'am for all your service and all your work. I know working in lunchrooms can be demanding but it tells me that you love to cook and bake and I love to bake myself! Have a wonderful day! Always, Andy

I’m pretty darn sure I gained ten pounds just watching this!!😊 Absolutely delicious!!! God bless you two!!!

I always mix my cinnamon in the brown sugar, and mix it with the electric mixer because I want the cinnamon in them evenly. I love cinnamon!

I love Orange Rolls….baking is my therapy.

Ms. Lori thank you so much. At 66 I have failed at making cinnamon rolls so many times that I gave up. My husband loves them so I decided to try one more time with your recipe. WOW!!!! They came out perfect and we are thrilled. I love watching you and Mr. Brown and pray God’s blessings upon you always💝

Thank you so very much Ms. Lori for sharing this recipe. My husband and I were watching you make these the other night together. When you were finished, I said, “I am going to have to try those”, my husband said, “ I wish you would”. So, last night we had them for dessert after supper. They were fabulous. My husband told me to make sure I left you a comment and tell you how grateful he is that you share these. He said they are the best cinnamon rolls he has ever eaten. Praying daily for you and Mr. Brown. Love y’all.

Seen so many recipes for sweet rolls, secret ingredients, my grandma taught me,and so on with the gimmicky titles, tried this one and I can honestly say these are super good! My Family keeps asking me to make them on the weekend they are so soft and downright tasty! thank you for sharing...

I have made this recipe 3 times since you posted this video and they are delicious. I go back and watch this video every time I’m cooking them and it feels like your right there with me talking me through the steps. Thank you for all your wonderful videos!

Oh my goodness, I made these cinnamon rolls today and they were melt in your mouth!! The dough is pillowy soft (how it felt when I was kneading it)!! This is my forever cinnamon roll recipe❤❤

Your voice is so peaceful. I find myself needing to destress from being homeschool mom that I play your videos while I cook or just at the end of the day right before bedtime and I am immediately put at ease. Your voice is so nice to listen to. Thank you for these videos🥰!!

These were so easy to make, and so perfecting coming out of the oven, my son could not wait to eat one. They are so delicious and the dough is not dry. I can't thank you enough for teaching us how to make them and providing the entire recipe. Every thing I have made from your darling cookbook is a huge hit with my family. God has blessed you and us. Peace and love and joy are always felt watching your channel.

Baking cinnamon rolls now - with lightly cooked bacon rolled in them! (Idea from Steve Doocey) Added a little maple syrup to the icing. You always get me in the mood to cook.

Great Christmas present to me. My mom who passed away made the best cinnamon rolls. I made cinnamon rolls too. I can't make them right now but seeing you do it gives me great joy and comfort. Thank you. They made rolls at our school. They served two with a big glob of butter. Thank you God for the people who cook and bake excellent food for school children. We love them so much. Have a great New Year!

Lori, thank you for putting the recipe in the notes! I am definitely going to try it!

These rolls look SO GOOD! You are a wonderful “teacher” with such a pleasant voice! Thanks so much for your recipe, and the little extras that make these rolls look irresistible!😊❤

Video was fine here. Always love when a video comes out. Love your recipes!

My Aunt Belle worked in the cafeteria at school. She would make me these cinnamon rolls during the summer. Great memories🤗🤗

I love how you say the dough is so pretty, and caution us to be gentle with it! Warms my heart!

Cinnamon rolls look absolutely delicious. Thank you for showing us the way you make them. 🌻 Blessings to you too.

Thank you for the tip about using the microwave with the hot water to proof (I say rise 😅) the dough. I usually use my oven when my home is on the cooler side, but the microwave will work better.

Oh my ! Who doesnt love cinnamon rolls. Thank you Ms. Lori.

What a great idea...proofing the dough in the microwave with a tall glass of hot water to provide warmth. If I never learned anything else, this idea was so helpful in my drafty old kitchen. Thank you!

Hi, I watched this video many times and finally today followed your recipe step by step and these turned out so perfect! The dough raised so beautifully. The center is warm and ooey gooey, just perfect! I can’t wait to try more of your recipes!🎉

Ms Lori I can’t believe how soft these rolls are. Those egg yokes really make a big difference. This is by far the softest cinnamon roll I’ve ever made! Thank you! I filled mine with reduced pumpkin brown sugar spices and walnuts

It’s so calming, relaxing and peaceful seeing someone who takes great joy and pride into their baking 💚💜💙

Best cinnamon roll recipe I have seen. You made it look so easy. They look delicious! TYFS!

I am proofing mine right now they look amazing I am so excited to try them! I just love your main ingredient, the love you clearly pour into everything you create!

Hey, Mrs. Laurie! You mentioned how therapeutic it was to make the cinnamon rolls. It was equally as satisfying watching and listening. Thank you for sharing. Blessed be!🙏🏽

Hooboy, do these look wonderful. Makes me mighty hungry for cinnamon rolls.

She is a lovely lady. Very down to earth, so kind and thoughtful 💗

This is my absolute favorite cinnamon roll recipe. I always come back to it. God bless you and your home. And thank you so much for kindly sharing your skills and love.

Oh, my! Those look delicious. Reminds me of when my kids were in school and they loved days when they had chili at for lunch because the lunch ladies always had huge cinnamon rolls for dessert. The lunches have changed over time and sadly there are no more cinnamon rolls at school. But they live on in many happy memories.

My momma made the best cinnamon rolls awesome. Your recipes is so much like momma's. Thank you for sharing Ms Lori have a blessed evening stay safe and healthy. That's how momma made them cinnamon rolls only no added anything. How sweet of you to him the cinnamon rolls God bless your sweet heart.🙏❤🙏❤🙏

Oh my, these were without a doubt the best cinnamon rolls I have ever had! Thank you so much!!!

😊I made them today! Oh so fabulous! My go to dough from now on! Thank you ❤ God Bless you Ms Lori and Mr Brown

I like it when you have the recipe printed out. Or you can just show a written one up and we can screen shot it. Love your recipes and all the things you and your husband do. I think the life you are living is great. You say simple , I say beautiful.

Miss Lori, I just made these rolls. With this recipe, I have finally learned how to not make a hard-as-a-rock cinnamon roll. They were so soft and sweet; just perfect. Thank you so much for this very easy recipe.

I just love how relaxing your videos are to watch. I gravitate toward the lunch lady sheet cake pan recipes because those were what I remember fondly from my days in elementary school (64 years ago). Today I learned you were once employed as a lunch lady...that explains it!! I am planning to use your dough tomorrow morning and make myself a big ole pan of cinnamon rolls. Thank you! 😋😍

I do not do much baking but I seriously cannot wait to try your sweet dough recipe, and especially appreciate the use of heavy cream in the icing. Thank you and God bless you!

These are the best cinnamon rolls I have ever made! My search for the perfect recipe is over! Thank you so much for sharing. May you and your family have a blessed Christmas.

Hello Missy Lori, I cannot tell you how I’m enjoying your videos, stories, your warm voice. Right now I’m in a rehab facility recovering from a nasty fall and surgery. It’s been a difficult week, a few setbacks, but now feel I’m making progress. Thank you for being here, like a good friend, and keeping me company❣️🌻

Mine are in the oven and look beautiful! Almost done proofing and ready to bake. I can’t wait to eat them!!Thanks for the recipe!!!❤

What a sweet blessing you are to me❤ Yesterday was my grandson’s 8th birthday. His request was to make cinnamon rolls with Nana. What a fun time! We used your recipe and drizzled an orange zest in the glaze. So so good! One of the best sweet doughs I have ever made!!❤

That Mixer looks awesomely awesome I think it gets the dough really nice....Yummy and those Cinnamon Rolls are yummy looking.!

I've never seen a mixer like that. Those cinnamon rolls look so great. God Bless you !!!

Absolutely looks delicious thanks for the demonstration.

Mrs. Lori! This dough recipe is amazing! I made some rolls with lemon curd filling and my husband is going to absolutely LOVE THEM! Thank you so much!

Back when I was fortunate enough to have a job, I would bake the favorite cake of my team members when they had a birthday 🥰. I got so much gratification out of seeing them smile 😊 This looks Sooooo… delicious 😋

That is an absolutely brilliant way to proof dough! I am constantly worried about the temperature and humidity when I’m proofing dough, I drive myself bonkers. This method will eliminate my nonsense anxiety while proofing, thank you for that(guessing you didn’t realize that you were also administering cognitive behavior therapy 😊)! I am definitely going to try this dough, I adore cinnamon rolls but have always found the dough I’ve used is too savory and drier than I want in cinnamon rolls. Thanks again!

Those cinnamon rolls look amazing, and the dough makes me want to eat it raw it looks so tender and easy to make and roll out I could just imagine all of the goodies that can be made from it. I feel like you are so kind and I thank you so much for sharing your wonderful recipes.

Ms Lori, I split this recipe and mixed in my bread machine. Rolled by hand and baked. Already had some left over icing in fridge. Yum. You are a blessing to watch.

My family will go crazy when I make these. Thanks so much for making it look so simple. God bless yall.

My momma made cinnamon buns for years. I loved the smell that permeated the whole house on baking day. She never melted the butter that she spread on the dough but just used softened butter we would spread over the dough with our clean hands, then the brown sugar and cinnamon and walnuts. This video brings back SO many memories. Thank you dear lady.

I absolutely LOVE a fresh cinnamon roll with my coffee in the morning, so I gave your recipe a try. Boy, am I glad I did! They turned out perfect and were the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had anywhere. Thanks for sharing. 💕

I went to school and eat them and loved them! So Great! I miss them so much! Thank you so very much for showing me how to make them! God Bless you! 😊❤

If anyone out there is wondering if they should make these, wonder no more and just do it. This is THE BEST sweet dough! Topped half with plain icing, the other half with orange cream cheese icing, and chopped walnuts over all. Amazing! So, so happy to finally have the perfect sweet dough recipe. Thank you Ms Lori!❤

These cinnamon rolls look amazing! You do it with such ease. It’s obvious that you love baking. Your coworker will LOVE these. You’re a great friend to be making these amazing cinnamon rolls for him. I’m starving for cinnamon rolls now. God bless you Miss Lori, I just love watching your videos.
