How to Make Kiddie Cinnamon Rolls

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, cut 1 cup (2 sticks) of cold unsalted butter into 3 cups all-purpose flour. Add 2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cut until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually stir in 3/4 cup milk until the dough forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for about 10 times.
  5. Roll the dough into a 12x18 inch rectangle (approximately 1/2 inch thick).
  6. Brush the dough lightly with 2 tablespoons milk.
  7. In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon (or more, to taste). Sprinkle evenly over the dough, reserving about 1 tablespoon for topping.
  8. Starting from the long side, tightly roll the dough into a cylinder.
  9. Slice the roll into 1-inch thick pieces.
  10. Place the rolls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with the reserved cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  11. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
