Instructions

Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch round baking pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the rolls.
Make the dough: In a mixing bowl, combine the Bisquick baking mix, milk, sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until a soft dough forms, ensuring all ingredients are well combined.
Roll out the dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. This creates an even surface to spread your filling on.
Add the filling: Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the brown sugar and ground cinnamon evenly over the buttered dough for a flavorful filling.
Form the rolls: Starting from one edge, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Slice the rolled dough into 8 even pieces to make individual cinnamon rolls.
Arrange in pan: Place the cinnamon roll slices in the prepared baking pan, spacing them slightly apart to allow for expansion while baking.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through to a soft, fluffy texture.
Prepare the glaze: While the rolls are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth and creamy.
Glaze the rolls: Once the cinnamon rolls are done baking, remove them from the oven and immediately drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls to add a sweet finishing touch.
Serve: Serve the cinnamon rolls warm and enjoy the comforting flavors fresh from your oven.

Notes

For easier rolling, chill the dough for 10 minutes before rolling out if it feels too sticky.
Use parchment paper in your baking pan for an easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
You can substitute milk with a non-dairy alternative for a dairy-free option.
For extra gooey rolls, add more brown sugar and cinnamon filling.
Store leftover cinnamon rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
Reheat gently in the microwave before serving to restore softness.
