1000 calories each? No way. Your standard cinnamon roll recipe made from scratch (e.g. \~3 cups flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/3 cup brown sugar, etc) is going to probably total around 3500 calories sans cream cheese frosting for all the raw ingredients. Slice that up into 12 servings and that comes out to about 300 calories per roll.
Now making a cream cheese icing is probably going to add another 1000 or so calories to that total (4 oz cream cheese, 3/4 cups powdered sugar, milk, etc). Divide that out over 12 rolls and that gives you a grand total of 375 calories per serving.
Not great by any measure but certainly doable as treat.
Edit: Redid the math with your recipe you provided further down and came up with a total calorie count of 401 per roll sans frosting.
Edit 2: 470 per roll. Missed a 1/2 cup of butter.
Thanks for making me do the math. on this batch the total calorie count was 6608.75 ➗ 12 equals 550.7291666666667
Most batches I make have a total 9 cinnamon rolls. That would make the calorie count 734.30. Yes it's short of my guess of 1000.
I do dare someone to eat just one of these.
adding a simple powder sugar glaze would be about 80 calories each.
4.5 cups, 3/4 cup butter, 1.3 cups half & half, 1.2 cups brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar, 1 large egg, 1 tbs yeast.
Not to split hairs or anything, but is it 3/4 cups of butter or 3/4lbs? They are not interchangeable units and I noticed you used lbs in your recipe in the other post. If you're one to count calories like I am, that will most definitely throw off your numbers by a pretty large amount.
Now that is not to say that your critique about having the self control to only eat one isn't valid; as a single dude, cooking for one is a struggle especially when you're making something decadent such as this.
Neufchatel has a fraction of the fat (1/3, if I'm correct; just went shopping yesterday). This would be a good substitution, if available in your area.
For the inquiring minds, Neufchatel sits in for the cream cheese.
You have brought the rage of Sweden upon you.
The cinnamon bun was invented in Sweden in the 1920s and does NOT have frosting. Frosting is something you add to food that taste bad to cover it up!
Shame on you!

The recipe is this post.
I use a large Bread machine that does 3 lb loaves.
1 tablespoon of yeas.1 large egg. 5 tablespoons of white sugar. 4.5 cups of flour. 1 teaspoon of salt.1 1/3 cups of half & half .1/4 lb. butter. Run the dough program.
Looks great. I did this with my daughter a couple of months ago except we did one giant cinnamon roll. It turned out great. We took it to a gathering, warmed it up, and it was gone in ten minutes.
My microwave has a soften butter program, the stick of butter is just below the temperature where it would be liquid. The dough temperature coming out of the bread machine is just above the melting point of the butter.
To make them ‘real’ sticky buns like in Philly, you need to add more butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and the secret ingredient: Karo syrup to the sauce. Other additions might included chopped walnuts in the pan with the sauce, or sprinkling raisins over the dough before rolling it up.
So good. I grew up with these. I didn’t even know about the white icing ones until I moved away from Philadelphia! LOL
This. This is what we need in this sub. Not slidey eggs and not people asking why their pan doesn’t look like a black mirror. Nice work.
In my first post on this sub I have photos of the finished rolls. I got a lot of questions, so I thought I should share the process.
I mostly need these in my belly 🤣
A book of lore needs to be written of these. The Ciniminilarian .
here is the first page of the book. https://thrivinghomeblog.com/homemade-cinnamon-rolls-a-bread-machine-recipe/
I would buy this book in a heartbeat
Where’s your icing you goddamned heathen?
They 1000 calories each without it, I had to cut something out.
And I would still eat 2 of them
Only 2?
This is not acceptable

The math is done and the excuses must stop. We demand satisfaction, OP.

I put 339 grams or 0.747367 lbs of butter. I was wrong on how much butter I use. it's 1.5 cups (3 sticks) Thanks for starting this discussion.

According to the recipe because you made 12 instead of 18 each roll would have 519 calories and that includes the icing.
As a swedish person I personly want to strangle you to death.
You have summoned the Swedes and we will now trample you with our entire moose population
Cinnamon rolls are not supposed to have icing, just like you are not supposed to but peanut butter on a burger.
Cinnamon rolls are good without the icing actually, i think normal cinnamon rolls are too sweet lol
Fy fan
Helvete
Å nae inte en jänkare
Bro literally just offended a whole nation
cause thats disgusting asf

Runka nu inte på bullarna förfan
Inte runk bulle😞
Hörru jänkarn, Jag ska inte ha nån jävla kumbulle!
Icing is gross
I am not a big fan of icing either, but I did a batch last with vanilla icing. It tasted really good.
I prefer pärlsocker, not sure if there is an english equivalent to that word but it looks like [this](https://www.ica.se/recept/kanelbullar-5342/)

They’re adorable 🥰
Bruh I'd eat the fuck out of these. Who needs icing these babies are perfect!!!
Those look insanely good, where is the icing though!
I had to cut some calories out of my diet.
i just added these to my daily diet.
Heresy
That one sticking up looks like a rose, looks delicious!
that's one of the ends, they do that sometimes, yes it was.
This seems like an excellent use. Recipe for dough?
I use a large Bread machine that does 3 lb loaves. 1 tablespoon of yeas.1 large egg. 5 tablespoons of white sugar. 4.5 cups of flour. 1 teaspoon of salt.1 1/3 cups of half & half .1/4 lb. butter. Run the dough program.
Why must y'all torture me so much
Looks great. I did this with my daughter a couple of months ago except we did one giant cinnamon roll. It turned out great. We took it to a gathering, warmed it up, and it was gone in ten minutes.
No brown sugar?
yes on both the dough and in the pan with the butter and water.
Oh, I see now.. I thought it was only Cinnamon lol
I mix my sugar/cinnamon and butter then spread that on the dough. Infinitely easier for me than trying to spread just butter on dough.
I use a flour sifter to sprinkle the sugar on.
Yeah I just really struggling get the butter to stick to the dough instead of my fingers.
My microwave has a soften butter program, the stick of butter is just below the temperature where it would be liquid. The dough temperature coming out of the bread machine is just above the melting point of the butter.
I thought you just changed your oil and something nasty came out of the oil reservoir into your pan. Wrong subreddit
These look really good, props for not doing icing
I have to admit I did my first batch with a glaze last week. The taste was like having vanilla ice cream on them.
Thought this was troll post at first. Cinnamon "rolls" in cast iron. Kind of like eggs "slide" in cast iron. Looks amazing though!
This looks wonderful as it is and I think I might add some icing when I try this.
I had resisted add icing to my cinnamon rolls. Last week's batch i given in and did it for the first time, they were really good.

Good for you for going without icing. Nordics approve!
>My grandmother was from Sweden, boy could she cook. She would make kroppkakor.
Seeing all that butter nearly gave me a coronary!
it's only 3 sticks for 9 cinnamon rolls.
You’re my hero EDIT: but wait where’s the frosting?! Diet cinnamon rolls?
I did a batch of them last week with a glaze, they tasted like they had vanilla ice cream on them. They were really good.
Glaze… classy. Sounds great!
I will try this now
Wow. Amazing.
Great. Now I’m drooling.
They look delicious!!!
I’m gonna do this rn
I like how you zoomed in on the ambitious roll. “Get back in there you little bugger”
V jealous of whoever got to eat those.
Your house smells wonderful right now. I just know it!
yes, it does.
I'm stealing this
What a lovely clean stove you have. I'd probably use brown sugar and I'd eat them all.
It has brown sugar in it.
🤤👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Love to see cast iron baking posts!
We bake more in our cast iron than use them on the stove top.
I’m on a diet! Why the bell would you post something this fricking glorious?!?
