List of Ingredients




8 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
5 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup low-fat buttermilk
1 large egg
Icing:
1/4 cup low-fat cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon low-fat buttermilk
1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar


Recipe



1. Heat oven to 425 degrees F with rack in upper third. Coat a 9-inch square pan with cooking spray; set aside.

2. In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, 2 tbsp granulated sugar and cinnamon with 2 tbsp butter; set aside.

3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 3 tbsp granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk, egg and 3 tbsp butter. Stir together the liquid and dry ingredients; dough will look rough. Knead on a floured surface until just smooth, about 5 turns.

4. Pat or roll dough into a 9-by- 13-inch rectangle. Brush with 2 tbsp butter. Spread dough with brown sugar filling, leaving 1/2-inch border. Use a spatula to lift dough from surface and roll, starting at a long side, to form a tight log. Pinch seam to seal log and slice evenly into 9 pieces. Place in prepared pan swirl-side up and press rolls down slightly. Brush tops with 1 tbsp butter.

5. Bake until edges are just golden brown and rolls are cooked through, 22 to 25 min. Loosen rolls from pan and invert onto a plate; reinvert to right side up onto a rack. Cool 5 min before icing.

6. For icing: In a bowl, beat together cream cheese and buttermilk until smooth. Beat in confectioners sugar to form icing; spread over rolls with a knife. Serve rolls warm. Makes 9 rolls.
