A few of you asked for the cinnamon roll recipe. This is a favorite at our house and has become a traditional treat for Christmas and Easter mornings...
Rich Swedish Cream Dough
1 envelope active dry yeast
1/4 c. warm water; 115 degrees
1 c. heavy cream
1/4 c. evaporated milk
3 egg yolks; slightly beaten
3 1/3 to 3 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
1/4 c. sugar
1 tsp salt
1/2 c butter
Instructions: Stir yeast into warm water to dissolve in small bowl. Mix well the dissolved yeast, cream, milk, and egg yolks, set aside. In large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in 1/2 cup butter with pastry blender or pulse in food processor until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir yeast mixture into flour mixture just to moisten. Spread dough with light film of butter to prevent drying; cover bowl with plastic and refrigerate overnight or up to 4 days. Shape and bake as directed.
Cinnamon Buns
Combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1 tbsp of cinnamon in a small bowl. Turn dough out on lightly floured surface. Dust with flour and knead a few turns. Roll out to a 15" x 12" rectangle. Brush with 3 tbsp melted butter and sprinkle cinnamon/sugar mixture evenly over surface. Starting at the long edge, roll up as for a jelly roll and pinch to seal. With a sharp knife, cut into 18 even slices. Place in a greased 13" x 9" pan. Let rise until light and double in size. Bake at 350 degrees F. for about 20 minutes. While warm drizzle with icing.
I hope you enjoy it!
