Recipe Introduction

NOTE:
The first time I made these I used the cup of butter without dividing it. Just dumped it all on top of the dough, and then used 1/2 Cup more melted butter for the bottom of the pans. The raisins and nuts (I use pecans of course) are just at will, no real measurement, and I think I use more than they call for.
List of Ingredients
DOUGH
2 Pkgs. Active dry yeast
1 Cup warm water (105-115 degrees)
2/3 Cup plus 1 teaspoon granulated sugar, divided
1 Cup warmed milk
2/3 Cup butter
2 teaspoons salt
2 Eggs, slightly beaten
7-8 Cups all-purpose flour, or more if needed
FILLING:
1 Cup melted butter, divided
1 3/4 Cups granulated sugar, divided
3 Tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 1/2 Cups chopped walnuts, optional
1 1/2 Cups raisins, optional

2/3 Cup melted butter (1 stick plus 2 tablespoons)
4 Cups powdered sugar

Recipe
TO PREPARE DOUGH
In a cup, combine yeast, warm water and 1 teaspoon sugar; stir and set aside.
In a large bowl, mix milk, remaining 2/3 cup sugar, melted butter, salt and eggs; stir well and add yeast mixture. Add half the flour and beat until smooth. Stir in enough of the remaining flour to make a slightly stiff dough (it will be sticky). Turn out onto a well-floured board; knead 5-10 minutes. Place in a well-buttered glass or plastic bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, until doubled in bulk, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. When doubled, punch down dough and let rest 5 minutes. Roll out on floured surface into a 15 x 20 inch rectangle.
TO PREPARE FILLING
Spread dough with 1/2 cup melted butter. Mix together 1 1/2 cups sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over buttered dough. Sprinkle with walnuts and raisins, if desired.
Roll up jelly roll fashion and pinch edges together to seal. Cut into 12 to 15 slices. Coat bottom of a 13x9 inch baking pan and a 8 inch square pan with remaining 1/2 cup melted butter, then sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup sugar. Place cinnamon roll slices close together in pans. Let rise in warm place until dough is doubled in bulk, about 45 minutes..
Preheat oven to 350„a Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until rolls are nicely browned. Cool rolls slightly.
TO PREPARE GLAZE:
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix melted butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Add hot water 1 tablespoon at a time until glaze reaches desired spreading consistency. Spread over slightly cooled rolls.
