Preparation

Step 1

Buns

- Mix together 1 ½ cups sugar and cinnamon—set aside.
- In a small bowl, dissolve yeast and 1 tsp. sugar in warm water; set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix together milk, 2/3 cup sugar, 2/3 cup melted butter, salt and eggs; add yeast mixture and 4 cups of flour to mixture; beat until smooth; still in enough flour to form a slightly stiff dough.
- Turn dough out onto a well floured surface and knead for 8 minutes ( I need in mixer—about 5 minutes)
- Place dough in a large, greased bowl, cover, and allow to rise until doubled—about 1-1 ½ hours.
- Punch down dough and let rest 5 minutes.
- Roll dough out onto floured surface into a 15X20 rectangle (might be easier to divide dough in half and make two rolls to cut).
- Brush dough with ½ cup melted butter; sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar , sprinkle with nuts if you want to.
- Tightly roll dough and pinch ends together to seal; cut the roll into 12-15 slices using dental floss or thread.
- Coat bottom of pans with melted butter; sprinkle sugar evenly in bottom of pan.
- Place cinnamon rolls close together in pan; cover pan and allow to rise for 45 minutes.
- Bake rolls at 350 for 25-30 minutes.

Cream Cheese Icing
blend cream cheese and butter together until fluffy. Add in vanilla; blend. Add in powdered sugar and blend until smooth.

Freezing:
Once in prepared pan, cover with fool and freeze ( do not let them rise for the 45 minutes). Take out of freezer night before you want to cook. In morning cook as directed above.
