Softest Cinnamon Rolls with Salted Maple Glaze

These are fluffy, cinnamony, buttery and lavished with a downpour of salted maple glaze. They are not complicated but there is a fair amount of waiting time while the dough rises (P.S. I calculated total time for the cinnamon rolls based on rising times in a warm oven; if rising at room temp, you will nearly double the waiting time). When you bite into these, you'll realize it was so worth it in the end.
