Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls- Cream Cheese Frosting


I have tried about a half dozen various recipes to make cinnamon rolls and had yet to find one that suited my sons picky tastebuds.... UNTIL TODAY! DELICIOUS!! I will NOT be making these a lot because there are a few steps... I was up at 5:30am making them so that we could have them before church. I did freeze 5 so once I cook them up I will post my pictures of them. WORTH THE TIME AND EFFORT for special occations. I plan to make them when I have time one day and cut and freeze them so I can take out one or two when needed.

Dough
2 Tbls butter
1/4 cup white sugar
2/3 cup skim milk, warmed
1 Tbls yeast
1 large egg
1/4 cup canola oil
1/4 cup potato starch
3/4 cup corn starch
1/2 cup millet flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
2 1/2 tsp xanthan gum
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla

Filling
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/3 cup butter
(I have to tell you I just sprinked cinnamon and sugar on the inside... I didn't make this filling but I be they would be even better if I did)

Icing
8 tsp butter, softened
1 1/2 cups powder sugar
1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/8 tsp salt

*Dissolve yeast in large mixing bowl with warmed milk.. let bubble.
*Add sugar, butter, oil, and vanilla to milk/yeast. Stil
*Sift together salt, potato starch, cornstarch, millet flour, baking soda, baking powder, and xanthan gum.
*Slowly add flour mixture to mixing bowl and stir to combine.
*Remove dough from mixing bowl and place in greesed container and put in warm oven (warm to 200 degrees and turn off). The dough is very sticky. Let rise 45minutes
*Roll dough out between two pieces of wax or parchment paper. Roll to your desired thickness.
*Remove top sheet of paper from dough and spread on some butter.
*Sprinkle on topping mixture.
*Using bottom sheet of parchment paper as an aid, roll the dough into a log.
*Cut into the sizes you desire. Make sure they are not too thick to cook all the way through.
*Put into a greesed dish and give space to allow for them to expand. You can set aside at this point and let them rise a bit more.
*Heat oven to 400 degrees. Bake for 18-20 minutes until tops are brown. Check by running knife between rolls in center. Dough should not stick.
*While rolls are baking make frosting.
*When rolls are done, top with frosting and ENJOY!!!!

Frosting and rolls freeze well so make what you will eat and freeze the rest.
