Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.
  3. Pour in milk and melted unsalted butter. Stir until a soft dough forms.
  4. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
Filling
  1. Mix cinnamon with brown sugar and evenly sprinkle the mixture over the rolled dough.
  2. Carefully roll the dough from one long side to form a tight log.
  3. Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 8 equal pieces.
Baking
  1. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish and bake in your preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Icing
