For this recipe you will need the following:
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 2 pkgs dry yeast
- 2 T sugar
Combine and stir until dissolved. Â Set aside.
- 1 pkg instant vanilla pudding
Mix this according to package directions.
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 2 eggs beaten
- 1 tsp salt
Add, Â Then add yeast mixture.
- 6 cups flour–I used white
Add and knead until smooth.
Place in a greased bowl and cover. Â Let rise until double. Â Punch down and let rise again.
Then roll out and spread with 2 T melted butter
Sprinkle with 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1 tsp cinnamon
Cut into 1 inch slices
I had heard the hype about using dental floss to cut threw the dough, I tried it and thought the process was much too slow. If you use a knife it does push down your rounds making them odd shaped. Â When I put them onto a cookie sheet, I just quickly reshaped them into a perfect circle before baking.

You can either place them in a 9×13 baking pan that has been greased and let rise until double again. Â Then bake 350 for 15 minutes.
or
You can freeze them. Â After cutting them, I place them onto cookie sheets and freeze solid. Â After frozen solid I scrape them off and place into freezer plastic bags.
When I need a batch in the morning, I get them out the night before and place in the refrigerator in a pan to thaw overnight. Â I sit out for about 30 minutes to let rise and then continue baking.
Drizzle with a powdered sugar glaze while still warm.
Simple recipe, just add powdered sugar and water to achieve a good consistency.
This makes 2–9×13 pans.







Hi amy, I made the cinnamon rolls with my brioche recipe ! I t was delicious !
thanks
Vanessa
Vanessa, what is brioche? I am unfamiliar with it. Love to have new ideas and insight:)
Do you add the pudding mix to the dough ? Is that a typo?
Thanks for asking….no add that to the cinnamon roll mixture…just the mix
Awesome!! Thanks love your YouTube channel!!
what size of pudding mix package do you need?
the smaller sized boxed:)
I am very confused you mention after the butter spread out on the dough you add the brown sugar but your ingredients list does not mention Brown sugar. How much do we need? You also say you need vanilla pudding but then never state when or how we use it. When is that used? Also about how many cinnamon rolls does this make?
I didn’t set it up like a “real recipe card” If you start at the top, do the ingredients it says and do what it says. then move on to the next. the vanilla pudding it says under it to mix according to package directions. It tells you under the picture how much brown sugar to sprinkle on. At the bottom it says 2, 9×13 pans:)
Yesssss! I found it and bookmarked. Will be making these ASAP!!! Thanx so much for sharing!!
you are welcome
This recipe was great I watched you make these on your YouTube channel and had to give these a try I must say it made so many that we will have plenty for days !lol
I am happy….they are so good…In our home….goes real quick lol
…just wondering if the uncut roll could be cling-wrapped and frozen that way then put into refrigerator overnight? Seems it would take up less space.
That sounds like a fantastic idea:)
one nice thing about this method is, if you slice it while still a little frozen, you’ll get nice sturdy circles 🙂
yes I agree:)
Why use pudding? Sound interesting.
makes them soft
Hi there I live in the UK and we don’t have pudding mix so if I make an equivalent how much will I need weight wise please. I found you on YouTube about a month ago and think your videos are amazing especially that you find time to try to help others when you have soooo many other things to do also. How you do it I don’t know but I think you and your family are awesome.
I do what I do by the grace of the Lord…:) I don’t know how to convert things, maybe google it? They are pretty yummy and we made them a lot a few years ago.
Your recipe calls for flour. You said you use white flour. Is that plain or self-rising, please? Thank you for the wonderful videos! I really enjoy watching them. They have helped me out a lot. Keep up the good work and keep them coming. Thanks again and God Bless you all!!!!
Thank you for your kind words..just regular plain flour:)
Yes regular flour and thank you for your kind words:)
There is only one of me now and I only have one daughter, but I still do the freezer meals and just make several smaller portions for myself. I absolutely love all your ideas! Thank you for putting in the time and effort to share your experiences. I passed it on to a couple of co-workers and my sister and trying to convince everyone how much easier it makes life. I know with it only being me, I tend to eat unhealthy because I don’t want to cook after work. Now, I can come home and have something delicious that I can tell my co-workers about the next day and brag about just being able to throw it in the oven/crockpot. Keep up the good work!
Makes me smile. Have a wonderful day!
