Recipe Introduction
Posted by: bingoqueen63***********I made these twice this week, and they are fantastic!
I got the recipe from this board but never made them until this week.
My family thinks they're better than the ones I usually make.
List of Ingredients
5 to 6 c all purpose flour
1 tsp. salt
1 pkg (18¼ oz) yellow cake mix
2 pkgs, quick rise yeast
2½ c warm water (120º to 130º)
¼ c butter or marg., melted
½ c sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon
FROSTING:
6 T butter or marg., softened
3 c confectioners sugar
1½ tsp vanilla extract
2 to 3 T milk
Recipe
In a mixing bowl, combine 4 c flour, salt, dry cake mix, yeast and warm water until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface, knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide in half. Roll each portion into a 14" x 10" rectangle. Brush with butter; sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Cut each roll into 12 slices; place cut side down in two greased 13" x 9" baking pans. Cover and let rise until almost doubled, about 20 minutes.
Bake at 400º for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 20 minutes. For frosting, in a mixing bowl, cream butter, confectioners sugar and vanilla. Add enough milk to achieve desired consistency. Frost warm rolls. Yield: 2 dozen
I added the tsp. of salt. (that wasn't called for in the original recipe.) Adding almost 6 cups of flour, I just thought they would taste better,(and they did). I also added an extra tsp. of cinnamon.
