Super Duper Cinnamon Roll Recipe

Hey there! You know those cinnamon rolls that I told you about? Well here is the recipe!

Traditional Sweet Roll Dough

2 packages active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 warm milk ( scalded then cooled )
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup ( 1 stick ) butter, softened
4 1/2-5 cups of flour

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Stir in milk, sugar, salt, eggs, butter, and 2 1/2 cups of flour. Beat until smooth.
Mix in enough remaining flour to make the dough easy to handle.

Turn dough onto lightly floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Place in greased bowl; turn greased side up. Cover; let rise in a warm place until double, about 1 1/2 hours. Punch down dough. Shape dough into desired rolls and coffee cakes, cover, let rise for 30 minutes. Heat oven to 375, bake as directed below.

Cinnamon Rolls

Roll dough into a large rectangle; spread with melted butter. Mix sugar and cinnamon, sprinkle over rectangle. Roll up, beginning at wide side. Pinch edge of dough into roll to seal well. Stretch roll to make even. Cut roll into desired amount of slices. Place rolls apart in greased pan. Let rise until double. Bake 25 to 30 minutes. ENJOY!
