Cinnamon Rolls

Although I'm not convinced this is the best cinnamon roll recipe out there, every time I try a new one I end up coming back to this "old faithful". This recipe comes from the Mennonite Disaster Service Cookbook.

Here's the recipe:
1 cup scalded milk
1 cup lukewarm water
1 1/2 pkgs yeast
1/2 cup & 1/2 tsp white sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup butter
5 cups of flour

For the filling:
2 cups (or so) of brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
Cinnamon

Scald milk. Mix lukewarm water, yeast, 1/2 tsp sugar and salt. Add melted butter and 1/2 cup sugar to scalded milk. Beat eggs and add to scalded milk. Beat until lukewarm; add yeast. Add enough flour to make a soft dough and let rise 1 hour, about double.

Roll out thin. Spread melted butter, sugar and cinnamon. Roll up dough and cut. It should look super yummy like this!

Place on pan to rise. I always cover with saran wrap and a tea towel, and then put them in the oven with the light on.

After they rise for 1 hour, bake at 375 for 20 minutes until lightly browned. You can add frosting, but I don't since Jordan doesn't like it :-(
