- Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.
- While rolls bake, mix glaze.
- In a medium bowl whisk together powdered sugar, zest, vanilla and milk.
- Mix until all the lumps are out and glaze is smooth.
- Glaze will be thin. Pour into a large spouted measuring cup.
- When cinnamon rolls are done, remove from oven and pour glaze over warm rolls.
