    2 cups lukewarm milk (scalded then cooled)
    1/3 cup sugar
    1/3 cup vegetable oil or shortening
    1 egg
    5 to 6 cups self rising flour
    4 TBSPS butter or margarine, softened
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 TBSP plus 1 teaspoon cinnamon

    Powdered Sugar Frosting
    1 cup powdered sugar
    1 TBSP milk
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla

    Recipe



    Dissolve yeast in warm water. Stir in milk, 1/3 cup sugar, the oil, egg
    and 2 to 3 cups of the flour. Beat until smooth and elastic, 8 to 10
    minutes. Place in greased bowl, turn greased side up. Cover and let rise in
    warm place until double, about 1 1/2 hours. (Dough is ready if an
    indentation remains when touched. )
    Grease 2 oblong pans, 13x9x2 inches. Punch down dough; divide into
    halves. Roll 1 half into rectangle, 12 x 10 inches. Spread with half of the
    butter. Mix 1/2 cup sugar with the cinnamon; sprinkle half the
    cinnamon-sugar mixture over rectangle. Roll up. beginning at wide side.
    Pinch edge of dough into roll to seal. Stretch to make even.
    Cull roll into 12 slices. Place slightly apart in one pan. Wrap pan
    tightly with heavy duty foil. Repeat with remaining dough. Refrigerate at
    least 12 overs but no longer than 48 hours. (To bake immediately, do not
    wrap. Let rise in warm place until double, about 30 minutes. Bake as
    directed below.
    Heat oven to 350degrees. Remove foil from pans. Bake until golden brown,
    30 to 35 minutes, Frost with Powdered Sugar Frosting while warm. 24 rolls.

    Powdered Sugar Frosting:
    Mix 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon milk and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla until
    smooth and of spreading consistency. Frosts 1 pan of rolls.

    NOTE: if larger rolls are desired, roll dough into rectangles 10 x 9
    inches. Cut into 9 slices. Place in greased baking pans, 9x9x2 inches. 18
    rolls.

    Caramel Pecan Icebox Rolls: (My favorite)
    Omit Powdered sugar frosting. Before rolling dough into rectangles, heat 1
    cup packed brown sugar and 1/2 cup butter or margarine until melted; remove
    from heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons light corn syrup. Divide Caramel Mixture
    between pans. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup pecan halves (I prefer chopped). Roll
    dough, slice, refrigerate and bake as directed. Immediately invert pans on
    large trays. Let pan remain over rolls 1 minute so caramel drizzles over
    rolls.

    Orange Marmalade Icebox Rolls:
    Omit butter, sugar-cinnamon mixture and Powdered Sugar Frosting. Before
    rolling dough into rectangles, beat 2 cups powdered sugar, 1/2 cup orange
    marmalade and 1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened, until smooth and
    creamy. Spread each rectangle with 1/3 cup of the marmalade. Roll dough,
    slice, refrigerate and bake as directed. Frost with remaining mixture while
    warm.
