With a new baby in our midst we are trying to soak up as much cuddling time as we can so I thought it would be fun to share our family's favorite Christmas recipes! Enjoy!
Cinnamon Rolls
Dough:
1 T. dry yeast
1 C. warm milk
1/3 C. white sugar
1/2 C. melted butter
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs
4 C. flour
Dissolve yeast in warm milk. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well. Knead into a ball. Let rise until double in size. When ready, roll out to about 1/4 inch thick. Spread with filling.
Filling:
1/4 C. butter, softened
1 C. brown sugar
3 T. cinnamon
Spread butter on dough evenly. Sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over dough evenly. Roll dough up. Slice roll into 1 inch slices. Place on a greased pan. Let rise again until doubled. bake 10 min. at 400 degrees.
Icing:
1/2 C. butter, softened
1 1/2 C. powdered sugar
1 oz. cream cheese
2 T. whipping cream
1 tsp. vanilla extract
pinch of salt
Beat until fluffy. When rolls are hot, spread lots of icing on them.
If baking in the morning make the dough, let rise, then make the rolls. Instead of letting them rise again, just wrap them up and put in the fridge. The next morning put them in the oven while it's preheating. When the oven is preheated start the timer. Makes a 9x13 pan...about 16-18 scrumptious rolls!
