Unkle Teddybear Cooks...Cinnamon Rolls
Today I am making Cinnamon Rolls. This has been requested by friends and family members. So enjoy.<br /><br />RECIPE:<br /><br />DOUGH<br />2 1⁄4 teaspoons active dry yeast<br />1⁄2 cup warm water (105-115 degree)<br />1⁄3 cup granulated sugar, plus<br />1⁄2 teaspoon granulated sugar, divided<br />1⁄2 cup warmed milk<br />1⁄3 cup butter or 1⁄3 cup margarine<br />1 teaspoon salt<br />1 eggs, slightly beaten<br />3 1⁄2-4 cups all-purpose flour (or less)<br /><br />Methods/steps.<br />In a small bowl mix together warm water, yeast and sugar and set aside. In a large bowl, mix milk, remaining 1/3 cup sugar, melted butter, salt and eggs; stir well and add yeast mixture. Add half the flour and beat until smooth. Stir in enough of the remaining flour until dough is slightly stiff (dough will be sticky).<br /><br />Turn out onto a well-floured board; knead 5 -10 minutes. Place in well-buttered glass or plastic bowl, cover and let rise in warm place, free from drafts, until doubled in bulk, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.<br /><br />Roll out on floured surface into a 15 x 20 inch rectangle.<br /><br />Fill with brown sugar, cinnamon and raisins. You can also add walnuts or pecans if you wish.<br /><br />Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until rolls are nicely browned.
