DOUGH: Pour water and yeast into large bowl and stir until yeast is dissolved. Stir in egg and 1/4-cup melted butter.
Use a wooden spoon to stir in cake mix and 2 cups flour until well blended. Place dough on flour surface and knead until smooth, about 5 minutes. You may need to work in a little more flour if your dough is sticky, about 1 tablespoon at a time.
Let dough rest on the counter for 15 minutes.
FILLING: Spray 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray. Stir together melted butter, brown sugar and cinnamon in small bowl.
Roll dough out into an 18x13-inch rectangle. Spread evenly with cinnamon filling.
Roll dough starting at the long end into a log. Cut log into 12 equal pieces and place in pan. Cover pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
Remove rolls from refrigerator and let sit at room temperature 1 hour. Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake cinnamon rolls 25 to 28 minutes, until doubled in size and centers are firm. Cool 20 minutes.
Beat cream cheese, vanilla, 1 tablespoon melted butter and confectioners’ sugar in medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Spread evenly over cinnamon rolls and serve warm.
