Source of Recipe


From "The Ultimate Southern Living Cookbook"



List of Ingredients



• 1 (8-ounce) carton sour cream
  
• 2 Tbsp butter or margarine
  
• 3 Tbsp sugar
  
• 1/2 tsp salt
  
• 1/8 tsp baking soda
  
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  
• 1 package active dry yeast
  
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
  
• 2 Tbsp butter or margarine, softened
  
• 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  
• 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  
• 1-1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar
  
• 2 Tbsp milk
  






Instructions



1. Heat sour cream in a small saucepan over medium-low heat to 105° to 115° F.
   
   
2. Combine warm sour cream, 2 tablespoons butter, 3 tablespoons sugar, salt, and baking soda in a large mixing bowl. Add egg and yeast; blend well. Add 1-1/2 cups flour; beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until well blended. Gradually stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough.
   
   
3. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead lightly 4 or 5 times. Cover and let rest 5 minutes.
   
   
4. Roll dough into an 18- x 6-inch rectangle; spread 2 tablespoons softened butter over dough. Sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon over dough. Roll up dough, starting at short side, pressing firmly to eliminate air pockets; pinch seam to seal. Slice roll into 12 (1/2-inch) slices. Place slices, cut side down, in greased muffin pans. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85° F), free from drafts, 30 minutes or until doubled in bulk.
   
   
5. Bake at 375° F for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden. Remove buns from pan immediately; let cool on a wire rack. Combine powdered sugar and milk; drizzle over buns.
