My kids are on spring break this week, and we all thought cinnamon rolls sounded good so I mixed up a batch. The kids prefer them without icing, I didn't argue much since I was out of confectioners sugar.
Recipe:
2 packages yeast, (1/2-ounce or 2 scant T.)
1/2 cup warm water
1 T. sugar
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup milk (warmed)
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. salt
4 1/2 cups flour
Dough topping:
1/2 cup butter
1 1/4 cups brown sugar
1/4 cup granular sugar
2 T cinnamon
Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup of warm water (about 110 degrees) and 1 T. of sugar. Let sit. Melt the 1/2 cup of butter and combine with 3/4 cups of warm milk. Using an electric mixer with a dough hook, mix dissolved yeast and butter/milk mixture on low. Slowly add 1/2 cup of sugar, then 1 egg. Add salt and 2 cups of flour on low, blend until smooth. Slowly add 1/2 cup at a time, the other 2 to 2 1/2 cups of flour. Put dough onto floured counter top. Knead dough until it doesn't stick to your hands. Place in a greased bowl. Cover with damp cloth and let rise for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until it doubles in size. Remove from bowl and place on a floured counter. Roll out in a 12 by 24-inch (approximately) rectangle, not too thin. Spread 1/2 cup butter over dough, combine dough toppings in a small bowl and sprinkle over butter. Roll dough into a log. Cut into thumb-width slices or 1 1/2-inch widths. Place in round cake pan or foil pan. Let rise to desired height. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Only bake on one rack, center of oven. Set timer for 15 minutes, then watch for desired brownness. Remove from oven - let cool. |

| This is one of the things my grandmother used to make when I was a child. Just the smell takes me back to those times. |

| Wonderful shapes and colors. If these rolls are (probable were) tasting as good as they look here, you probably won't have any problems with the kids today. |
