These are great on Christmas morning (or any other time!)
Ingredients:
2 pkgs. dry yeast
3 Tbsp. warm water
4 rounded Tbsp. butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup hot water
2 eggs, beaten
Directions:
Soften yeast in water and set aside. In large bowl, mix rest of ingredients. Add yeast mixture and then 3 1/2 cups flour. Mix together and cover with a warm damp cloth. Mixture will be sticky. When double in bulk, remove from bowl onto a fairly well-floured board. Add just as much flour to avoid sticking as needed. Then roll out in a circle and roll like a jelly roll and cut 1 inch thick. Let rise and bake in 350 degree F oven for 20-30 minutes.
Dissolve yeast in warm water. Combine shortening, sugar, salt and eggs. Add to yeast mixture and cooled milk. Add enough flour to make soft sponge. Allow to rise. Stir in remaining flour; let rise until doubled.
Roll out into rectangle. Sprinkle with cinnamon and brown sugar. Roll up; cut in 1 inch slices. Place in greased pans. Let rise until doubled. Bake at 375 degrees F for 25 minutes.
Servings:varies according to size of roll - makes quite a few
