A Slow Rise for the Best Cinnamon Rolls.

our favorite cinnamon rolls instructions

1. preheat oven to 450°.

2. mix both packets yeast into warm water and sprinkle a little sugar in too and step aside for 5-10 minutes.

3. in a large bowl mix 1 cup hot water ,shortening, salt and sugar ..mix and allow it to get warm.

4. with electric mixer add 2-3 cups of flour and mix till smooth.

5. now add you yeast mixture and blend until smooth.

6. stir in eggs.

7. now add remainder of the flour until your mixer wont mix it anymore and finish adding and mixing flour by hand…gently until a soft dough is formed.

8. knead dough a few times just to insure incorporation.

9. transfer dough to a bowl with a small amount of oil to cover outside of dough(turn dough once to cover).

10. set in a warm place covered and allow it to double in size (30 minutes).

11. push down dough and knead about 5 more times only.

12. separate into two and roll each dough ball into a 20 by 10' rectangular shape..

13. now take the softened butter and smear 1/2 stick on each dough rectangle.

14. next add your preferred amount of brown sugar….(I use a lot).

15. sprinkle lots of cinnamon…at this point you could also use raisins or nuts if you want..

16. starting with the long side of the dough, roll tight…not too tight…just makes it easier to cut and hold in filling..

17. pinch sides to hold it closed and cut into about 12 pieces per roll..

18. lay your cut rolls onto greased baking pans. and allow to double in size again..

19. Bake at 450° for 10 minutes.

20. lower heat to 350° and cook for about 6-7 more minutes…No longer..

21. cool rolls and frost or serve warm [which is the bomb :) ].

The dough I ultimately created is best made over two days.

Not only does this break up the work, but I think the flavor from a slow-risen dough tastes better.
