I know this is a really old thread, but I have a recipe that's a bit easier.
Dough
2 cups whole wheat flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 stick butter (softened)
3/4 to 1 cup milk
To make the dough mix together the dry ingredients. Then cut in the butter. Add milk until the dough is a bit sticky. Put on a floured surface and roll out.
Filling
Butter
Brown Sugar
Cinnamon
Spread filling on the on the rolled out dough. Butter first, then sugar, then cinnamon. Use as much or as little as you want.
Roll up and slice into rolls. Bake in a 375 degree oven for about 25 minutes, less if you are using white flour. You can bake them on a cookie sheet, 9×13 casserole pan, or round cake pan. If you are using 100% wheat flour it is better to use a pan with sides as the rolls have a tendency to spread out a little more.
Icing
3 Tablespoons butter (softened)
3 cups powdered sugar
3 Tablespoons cream cheese (softened)
1 teaspoom vanilla
Milk
note: This makes a lot of icing. You can freeze the extra and use later.
Mix together butter and cream cheese. Then add powdered sugar and vanilla. Add milk until you get a consistency that can be drizzled on the cinnamon rolls. When the rolls are finished drizzle with frosting.
