Quick breads or yeast breads need to always have the ingredients measured precisely. Use a knife to level the flour, salt or baking powder since baking is relying on the chemistry. When you have an ingredient 'heaping' you have changed the chemistry!

Cinnamon Rolls

This recipe for Cinnamon Rolls can be a weekend morning indulgence.

½ cup butter, melted
1 cup brown sugar
1 tbls cinnamon
2/3 cup raisins (optional)
1 batch crescent roll dough
or ½ batch Potato bread
or your favorite dough that would do a single loaf

Divide the risen dough in half but instead of making crescent rolls, roll out two 16x8 rectangles.

In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon and then add the melted butter. Spread half of it over each of the rectangles and sprinkle raisins over sugar mixture if you like. Start on the long side and roll up like a jelly roll and pinch the seam to seal. Cut into 1’’ slices and lay cut side down, in a well greased 13x9 pan.

Cover and let rise for 30 to 45 minutes. Bake at 375 for 20 to 25 minutes. Cool on wire racks. Drizzle on thin frosting: 1 cup of confectioners sugar, ¼ cup melted butter, 1 tbls cream, and 1 tea vanilla. Stir till smooth.

Sticky Caramel Rolls

In a non-stick saucepan combine ½ cup real butter, 1 cup brown sugar and ¼ cup light corn syrup (or maple syrup if you prefer) and cook over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Pour this mixture in a metal 13x9 pan and then proceed to place the cut cinnamon rolls in the pan. Continue to let rise and bake the same as cinnamon roll recipe except when finished baking invert on a platter while warm.
