Recipe Introduction
In sharing this recipe, Kenny Delmonico of Denver Station 9 insists he isn't omitting any crucial ingredients - despite the fact that others in the station house say they followed this recipe to the letter, and theirs don't taste like his. Tested at Denver's altitude, makes 15-20 rolls, enough for 5 firefighters.
List of Ingredients
1 cup milk
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons sugar
2 cakes of pressed yeast
2 eggs
4 tablespoons butter, room temperature
4 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup melted butter
2 cups brown sugar (light or dark)
cinnamon to taste
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Icing
2 cups confectioners sugar
3 tablespoons butter, room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla
extract
1 cup sour cream
Recipe
In a large saucepan, heat milk, salt, sugar and yeast slowly, over low heat, until lukewarm. Slowly add eggs, butter and flour, and mix by hand.
Place dough on a floured surface. Shape and roll into 24-inch-by-24-inch square, about 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick.
Preheat oven to 350. After dough is shaped, brush melted butter over entire surface. Spread brown sugar over entire surface. Sprinkle with cinnamon to taste, then pecans. Roll dough into a 3- to 4-inch roll. Slice 1 to 1 1/4 inch thick. Place rolls flat on buttered cookie sheet. Allow them to rise at room temperature until they touch each other. Bake 20-25 minutes.
Combine sugar, butter, vanilla and sour cream until smooth. Drizzle over baked rolls. Serve immediately.
