List of Ingredients
ROLLS*
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1 cup warm milk (105 to 110ºF)
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup margarine, melted
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs
4 cups flour
FILLING
1 cup packed brown sugar
2-1/2 tbsp. cinnamon
1/3 cup margarine, softened
ICING
1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine, softened
1-1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/8 tsp. salt
1. For the rolls, dissolve yeast in warm milk in a large bowl. Add the sugar, margarine, salt, eggs and flour; mix well. Knead the dough into a large ball, adding more flour as necessary, until dough pulls away easily from your hands. Put back in bowl, cover with kitchen towel, and let rise in a warm place about 1 hour, or until dough has doubled in size.
2. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough until it is approximately 21 inches long and 16 inches wide, and about 1/4-inch thick.
3. Preheat oven to 400º.
4. For the filling, combine brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Spread the margarine evenly over the dough, and then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar evenly over surface.
5. Working carefully from the top (a 21-inch side), roll the dough down to the bottom edge. Cut the rolled dough into 1-3/4-inch slices and place six at a time, evenly spaced, in a lightly greased baking pan. Bake for 12 minutes, or until light brown on top.
6. While the second batch of rolls bake, combine the icing ingredients. Beat well with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
7. When the rolls come out of the oven, cool 5 minutes then coat each generously with icing. Serve with leftover icing. Yield: 12 rolls.
