Cake Batter Cinnamon Rolls

Step 1

In a large pot combine milk, cream, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1/2 cup oil. Heat on high until just about to boil and then turn off heat. Let the mixture cool to warm (about 45 minutes to an hour).

Step 2

Add the packet of yeast and let it sit for a few minutes. Then add 4 cups of flour and stir with a wooden spoon till a dough forms.

Step 3

Cover with a clean towel and let rise for an hour.

Step 4

After an hour add the remaining 1/2 cup flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Incorporate into the dough, and turn it out onto a floured surface. Roll the dough out into a rectangle shape.

Step 5

Combine the butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl and mix until combined and crumbly. Spread evenly over the rolled out dough, making sure to reach all the edges. Sprinkle the cake mix powder evenly over the dough as well as half of the sprinkles.

Step 6

Starting with the long edge, roll up the dough, making one long tube. Use a sharp serrated knife to cut the dough into 14 equal size disks. Place into two round 9 inch cake pans that are greased. Cover loosley and let rise for another 30 minutes.

Step 7

Bake at 400 degrees for 13-15 minutes.

Step 8

Combine the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla and stir till smooth. Pour over warm cinnamon rolls and top with the remaining sprinkles!
