Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients
- 3 1/4 to 3 3/4 C flour
- 1 pkg yeast
- 1/4 C sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 egg
- 1/4 C packed brown sugar
- 2 T sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 C milk
- 1/2 C water
- 1/4 C butter or margarine
- 2 T butter softened
Instructions
-
In large mixer bowl, combine 1 1/2 C flour, yeast, 1/4 C sugar and salt; mix well. In saucepan, heat milk, water and 1/4 C butter until warm (120-130°). Add to flour mixture. Add egg. Blend at low speed until moistened; beat 3 minutes at medium speed. By hand, gradually stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough.
-
Knead on floured surface until smooth and elastic, 5 to 8 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover; let rise in warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
-
Prepare filling: Combine brown sugar, 2 T sugar and cinnamon; set aside.
-
Punch down dough. On lightly floured surface, roll to a 15x12" rectangle. Spread with softened butter. Sprinkle filling over dough. Starting with shorter side, roll up tightly. Pinch edge to seal. Cut into 12 slices. Place in greased 13x9" cake pan. Cover; let rise in warm place until almost doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 375° for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. Remove from pan; cool.
