Recipe for Sweet Rolls
Here ya go ladies, the recipe. Now I will climb back into bed as the bug has returned with vengeance. Guess I should have stuck with chicken noodle soup yesterday and left the cinnamon roll alone !
BASIC SWEET ROLLS RECIPE
4 - 4 1/2 cups flour
1 pkg (1 Tablespoon active dry yeast)
1 cup milk
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter
1 Teaspoon salt
2 eggs
In large bowl combine 2 cups of the flour with the yeast. Heat milk, sugar, butter and salt just till warm (115-120 degrees F) stir constantly, ( I never do that ) Add to flour mixture, add eggs, beat at low speed with electric mixer for 1/2 minute. I mix with a spoon. Beat for 3 minutes at high speed, again I mix with a spoon, makes a good workout.
Stir in as much remaining flour as you can. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic. 6 - 8 minutes total.
Shape into a ball, put in greased bowl, turning once. Cover and let rise in a warm draft free place until it is double in size, about 1 hour. Punch down, let rest 10 minutes. Roll out dough.
For Creamy cinnamon rolls melt 3 Tablespoons of butter, brush over dough. Combine 2/3 cups packed brown sugar, 2 teaspoons cinnamon and sprinkle over the the dough.
That's what the recipe says anyway. I just sprinkle on some cocoa, it just gives it a nice little added flavor, not a chocolate taste at all. Then sprinkle on the brown sugar till it looks good, then I sprinkle a mixture of cinnamon and sugar till it looks good and smells plenty cinnamony. You can add nuts or raisins if you want to.
Roll up the dough, slice with a knife. Make sure you sealed up your seams real good. Place in a greased pan. Cover and let rise till nearly double ( about 30 minutes) Now here is the good part. Pour a total of 3/4 cup of heavy cream over the pan. Bake in 375 degree F oven for 20 - 25 minutes.
After they are cool you can frost with Icing made of powdered sugar, about 1 cup, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and enough milk to make it drizzling consistency.
Then enjoy !
If you want to make Caramel Pecan Rolls,
place cut rolls atop a pan filled with brown sugar mixture. In a saucepan combine 2/3 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 cup butter and 2 tablespoons light corn syrup. Cook and stir until blended. After pouring the brown sugar mixture in the pan, sprinkle pan with 1/2 cup chopped pecans. Bake the same as for the cinnamon rolls. Invert onto serving dish
