Almond Vanilla Cinnamon Roll Recipe Day 4 & 5 #SwitchtoSilk


On Day 4 of the Silk for Milk challenge, I found myself preparing for our Sunday meal.  I like to prepare our meals on Fridays and Saturdays since Sunday is so hectic.  Our Sunday breakfast includes my homemade cinnamon rolls.  For Silk for Milk Day 4 Challenge, I decided to switch the milk in my recipe for the Silk Almond Vanilla Milk.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup Almond Vanilla milk
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened (I use butter)
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 (.25 ounce) package instant yeast
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup water
1 egg
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened (I use butter)
1/2 cup raisins (optional)

Directions: (see video)

Tomorrow I’ll be adding the frosting after I have cooked the cinnamon rolls in the oven at 375 degrees for 20 minutes.

INGREDIENTS:
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 cups sifted confectioners’ sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS:
1. In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and butter until creamy. Mix in the vanilla, gradually stir in the confectioners’ sugar. Store in the refrigerator after use.

Day 5 of our challenge found me substituting Silk Original Soy for milk in our macaroni and cheese. I actually noticed no flavor change and my family really enjoyed it. I feel so much better knowing that my family is not getting little lactose in their food but still lots of calcium.

Disclosure: I received products free of charge to help me in my 10 Day Challenge. I was not compensated in any way for this review.

    Wonderful tip I have learned, use dental floss ..wrap it around the dough, pull the sides across ways and it slices a piece .. works awesome..

    We’ve switched totally to Silk’s almond milk (unsweetened), I’ve used it in soups.. baking, etc and no noticable taste difference. Plus it has 50% more calcium, and only 35 calories per glass!
