Ingredients
  

For the Cinnamon Roll Dough:

4 cups all-purpose flour

1/3 cup granulated sugar

1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeast

1 cup warm milk (110°F)

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

2 large eggs

1 tsp salt

For the Cinnamon Filling:

1/2 cup brown sugar

2 tbsp ground cinnamon

1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

For the Tres Leches Mixture:

1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk

1/2 cup evaporated milk

1/2 cup whole milk

1 cup mango puree (fresh or canned)

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

For the Topping:

1 cup plain yogurt

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

Fresh mango slices for garnish

Mint leaves for garnish

Optional: chocolate chips or shavings

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. Add melted butter, eggs, and salt; mix well. Gradually add flour, one cup at a time, until a soft dough forms. Knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.

    First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

      Make the Filling: In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.

        Roll the Dough: Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle (about 16x24 inches). Spread the softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the butter.

          Form the Rolls: Starting from one long side, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking pan.

            Second Rise: Cover the rolls with a towel and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes until puffed.

              Preheat Oven: While the rolls are rising, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

                Bake the Rolls: Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven.

                  Make the Tres Leches Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, whole milk, mango puree, and cocoa powder until smooth.

                    Soak the Rolls: Once the cinnamon rolls are out of the oven, poke holes all over the top with a fork. Pour the tres leches mixture evenly over the hot rolls, allowing it to soak in. Let it sit for at least 10-15 minutes.

                      Prepare the Topping: In a separate bowl, mix plain yogurt with honey (or maple syrup) until smooth.

                        Serve: Spoon the yogurt mixture over the soaked cinnamon rolls. Garnish with fresh mango slices, mint leaves, and optional chocolate chips or shavings.
