Directions

Mix water, yeast, sugar, salt and eggs with an electric mixer. Add cooled margarine and 2 cup of the flour and continue beating until well mixed. Let stand 20 minutes and then add remaining 4 1/2 cups flour. Mix well and let rise until double in bulk. Knead. Divide dough in half and roll out each into a rectangle. Spread with melted margarine, cinnamon and sugar. Form into rolls, cut in slices and place in greased pans. Let rise again and bake at 375 degrees F for 25-30 minutes. Frost while warm with a thin icing made with margarine, powdered sugar, milk and flavoring of your choice (1 Tbsp. lemon or 1 Tbsp. vanilla). Raisins can be worked into dough or roll up into dough.
