2. Combine melted butter, brown sugar and cinnamon.  Using your hands rub the cinnamon/sugar paste all over the rolls, making sure to get inside every slit.  Spray plastic wrap with cooking spray and loosely cover rolls.  Allow to rise in a warm place until doubled.  
3. When rolls have risen, remove plastic wrap and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 15-16 minutes.  Carefully remove rolls from muffin tin as soon as they are finished baking.  Brush vanilla icing over the warm rolls.  Serve.
4. For the Vanilla Icing: Combine powdered sugar, one Tablespoon of milk and the vanilla extract and stir together until smooth and creamy.  If it's too thick, add a little more milk.
