Cinnamon Rolls


One of our family traditions for Christmas is to have homemade Cinnamon Rolls for Christmas morning. I got this recipe when hubby and I first got married. We have loved it!

Cinnamon Rolls

Blend together:
3 cups flour
3/4 cup powder milk
1/2 cup potato flakes (non-butter)
1/4 cup gluten
3 Tbsp yeast

Add:
2 1/2 cups hot water
3 eggs
1/3 cup oil
1/3 cup sugar

Mix well and then slowly add:
3-4 cups flour

Let mix for approximately 5 minutes.
Let rise 1 hour and then punch down.
Cut in 1/2 and roll into rectangle.
Spread butter across rectangle and then spread brown sugar and cinnamon on top.
Roll up and cut into slices.
Put in pan and let rise until double in size (approximately 45 minutes.)
Bake at 375 degrees for approximately 15 minutes.
Cool and Frost.

Frosting
(sorry there aren't exact measurements on powdered sugar and milk... I usually just add until I like the consistency and taste with the other ingredients)

Powder sugar (my best guess is about 1 lb.???)
Milk
1 tsp vanilla
3 oz cream cheese
3 Tbsp butter

Mix until nice and creamy!
