New recipe cinn rolls vanilla pudding

Vanilla Pudding Cinnamon Rolls
½ cup warm water
2 Tb yeast
2 Tb sugar
3 ½ oz package instant vanilla pudding, make as directed
½ cup butter, melted
2 eggs
1 tsp salt
6-7 cups flour

In a small bowl combine water, yeast and sugar. Stir until dissolved. Set aside. In large bowl, combine pudding, butter, eggs and salt. Mix well. Then add yeast mixture. Blend. Gradually add flour; knead until smooth. Do not add too much flour. It should be very soft but not sticky. Place in a greased bowl. Cover and let rise until doubled. Roll out on floured surface to about 34 X 21 inches in size. I don't think I've ever measured my rectangles. Make it however big you want.

Here's where I don't have exact directions. A little vague, I know, but it's all according to preference.
Take softened butter and spread over surface (Don't be too skimpy on the butter). Sprinkle cinnamon over butter (I like cinnamon so I use a lot.) Take handfuls of brown sugar and spread over butter/cinnamon (don't be skimpy here either). Roll it up into one big cinnamon roll log. Cut in 1 1/2 section with a super sharp knife or use floss or thread (way easier than I knife, I think).

Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet and let rise until double. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Frost with cream cheese frosting or regular icing.

Cream Cheese Frosting
8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla
3 cups powdered sugar
2-3 Tb milk
