Freshening my skills

After learning to bottle beans we wanted to make it a regular occurance to get together for Presidency Meeting while learning to cook something new. So this week it was the BEST cinnamon rolls and breadsticks.



Here are the recipes if you want them...Promise it's worth it, everyone that tasted them put them in the "Best I've ever had" category.

Cinnamon Rolls
Mix together:
1 large box (5.9 oz) vanilla pudding mix 2 tsp. salt
3 c. milk 1 c. warm water
4 TBS INSTANT yeast (SAF) 1/4 c. sugar
2 cubes margarine, melted 4 eggs
12 c. flour (put in 6 c. initially with above ingred. then add other 6 cups 1 cup at a time until dough starts to barely clean sides of bowl. Still a bit sticky...)

Let beat for 10 minutes. Pour into a large greased bowl and let raise til double (approx. 30 min. in warm kitchen). Punch down and let raise again (approx. 15 min.) Divide dough in half. Roll out each piece on floured counter into long rectangle, about 4" wide. Mix 4 tsp cinn. W/ 2 c. brown sugar. Spread half on each rectangle. Roll up. Cut into 1/2" rounds with dental floss. Place on greased cookie sheet with lots of space between. Raise then bake at 350 for 12-14 min. til golden brown.

ICING: 8 oz cr.cheese, 1 cube marg., 1tsp van., 1 Tbs milk, approx. 3 c. pwd. sugar (more or less 'til thickness you want...)

Breadsticks





Just don't add too much flour!! We did and wasted 16 cups of flour...what a shame!
