Make Roll recipe
Filling:
3 tablespoons butter, melted
¾ cup packed brown sugar
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cloves
1/8 teaspoon salt
Walnuts, chocolate chips or raisins (optional)
Frosting:
3 cups powder sugar
1 stick butter, softened
1-2 teaspoons vanilla
3 Tablespoons milk
1. For the filling: combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, cloves, salt, and the 1 tablespoon melted butter together in a medium bowl until the mixture resembles wet sand, set aside.
2. On a floured surface roll out the dough in a 9 by 12-inch rectangle (slightly thinner than the rolls). Brush the dough with 2 Tablespoons of the remaining melted butter. Sprinkle the dough evenly with the filling, leaving a ½ -inch border, and then press it firmly into the dough. For variety add walnuts, chocolate chips, or raisins.
3. Start on the longest side and roll the dough, pressing lightly, to form a tight log. Pinch the seam closed. With a knife or floss cut every 1 ½ or 2 inches. Put each cinnamon roll on a cookie sheet that has been brushed with melted butter. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise 15-30 minutes. Remove wrap and bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes or until light brown.
4. For Frosting: cream powder sugar and butter together. Add vanilla. Add milk one Tablespoon at a time until desired consistency. Spread frosting on top of rolls.

Rolls
1 heaping tablespoon yeast
½ cup warm water
1 cube butter, melted
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
½ cup sugar, plus a pinch for the yeast
4 to 5 cups flour
1. In a large mixing bowl combine the yeast, water and a pinch of sugar (in that order) and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. Meanwhile, melt the butter and remove from heat. Then add the milk to it so that it cools down.
2. In the bowl that has the yeast add butter/milk mixture, salt, eggs, and sugar. Stir this until the eggs are broken up. Then add the flour, one cup at a time. Continue to add flour until the dough is slightly sticky and the mixing pulls part of the dough away from the sides of the bowl. (It is always better to have less flour than too much because you can always add more later.) Mix dough for about 5 minutes. Put plastic wrap over the bowl and let it rise in warm place until double the size, about 1-2 hours. Punch it down and let it rise again. You can heat the oven to 200 degrees for 10 minutes and then turn off the oven and place the bowl of dough in the oven for a faster rising time.
3. On a floured surface cut dough in half, put half back in bowl. With other half, roll it out and cut into desired shape (triangles, circles or knots). Brush a cookie sheet with melted butter. Put rolls on cookie sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Let them rise for 15-30 minutes. Remove wrap and bake at 400 degrees for 7 to 8 minutes or until light brown. Enjoy warm with jam or cinnamon and sugar.
4. With the other half of dough you can make more rolls now or let it rise again and make them later in the day. Or you can make cinnamon rolls or orange rolls.
