Recipe
Again, I use my bread machine for the mixing and rising because of the arm problem. It will work either way for you - hand or machine. Load the bread machine with the first eight ingredients according to the manufacturer's directions. The aroma from the preparation is almost as good as the rolls themselves. Set machine on the "dough" cycle. This is a soft dough just in case you find you want to add more flour after five minutes of mixing.
When cycle is completed, turn dough onto lightly floured surface, punch down and let rest for five minutes. Roll into a 17x10" rectangle. Spread with butter; sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon. Roll up, jelly-roll style starting from a long side. Pinch seam to seal. Cut into 21 pieces.
Place 12 pinwheel piece sin a greased 13x9x2" baking pan and 9 pinwheel pieces in a 9" square baking pan. Cover. Let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire racks for five minutes.
In a mixing bowl, beat frosting ingredients. Frost warm rolls. Store in the refrigerator.
Note: Let the fillings be limited only by your imagination. This recipe has never failed me yet.
