Creating Decadent Red Velvet Cinnamon Rolls for Fall is an enjoyable process. Follow these easy steps to make your delightful rolls:

1. Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine warmed milk, granulated sugar, and yeast. Allow it to sit for about 5-10 minutes until foamy.
2. Mix the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, red food coloring, and the yeast mixture.
3. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Mix until a soft dough forms.
4. Knead the Dough: On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
5. Let it Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
6. Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix together softened butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Add flour if desired for a thicker paste.
7. Roll Out the Dough: Punch the dough down and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle (about 16×24 inches).
8. Add the Filling: Spread the cinnamon filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small edge around the borders.
9. Roll It Up: Starting from one long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seams to seal.
10. Slice the Rolls: Cut the rolled dough into 12 equal slices. Place them in a greased baking pan.
11. Second Rise: Cover the rolls with a damp cloth and let them rise again for about 30 minutes, or until they puff up.
12. Preheat the Oven: While the rolls are rising, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
13. Bake the Rolls: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until lightly golden and cooked through.
14. Make the Frosting: While the rolls bake, mix cream cheese, softened butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk in a bowl until smooth and creamy.
15. Cool the Rolls: Once baked, allow the rolls to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before frosting.
16. Frost and Serve: Spread the cream cheese frosting generously over the rolls while they are still warm.

With these straightforward steps, you’ll have a batch of incredible cinnamon rolls that will impress everyone!
