CINNAMON ROLLS

This makes a lot of very large rolls

Rolls Ingredients

2cups or warm water (110 degrees)

2 T yeast

3/4 cup sugar

2 cubes butter

2 eggs

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking powder

7 -8 cups flour

Combine in a separate bowl

2 cups warm water

2 T yeast

1 T sugar

In Mixing Bowl mix

2 cubes soft butter or marg.

3/4 cup of sugar

2 eggs

Then Add To The Mixing Bowl

3 cups of flour

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking powder

and the yeast mixture

Mix until it starts to combine then add

4 cups of flour

Mix for 2 min in your mixer

Let rise until it doubles.. I always let it rise a little more than double and I transfer it into my largest metal Bowl after I'm done mixing it and let it rise in there. Otherwise it will overflow the side of the bowl.

Dump dough out onto floured counter sprinkle more flour and top and knead until dough is smooth and can be rolled out without sticking too much. I like my dough a little sticky and it works better this way.

Roll out as large as you like about 1/4 or so. Then add the filling.

Filling

1-1 1/2 cubes of butter

1-2 cups of cinnamon and brown sugar mixture

*For every 1 cup of brown sugar used add 2 1/2 Tbs of cinnamon.

Spread softened butter all over the dough cover with cinnamon and sugar mixture. And just because there isn't already enough sugar in these already I like to sprinkle some regular cinnamon and sugar over the top. Then roll and cut as big or as small as you like. I make 24 rolls and place them in two 9x13 cake pans.

Let rise again about 30 min.

Bake at 350 degrees BELOW THE CENTER OF THE OVEN! THIS PART IS VERY IMPORTANT OR THEY WILL BE DOUGHY. Bake for 22-25 min.

I think the filling is what makes these rolls great and I have tried it with a number of my sweet roll recipes so if you have a sweet roll you really like you could just use it and add this filling.
