This recipe is my mom's, and I'm pretty sure it's the best out there. I don't think I've ever heard anyone say anything but yummy goodness about them.
Mitzi's Cinnamon Rolls:
Dissolve 2 TBS yeast in 3 C. warm water and add:
3/4 C. sugar
1/2 c. butter or marg.
2 beaten eggs
continue to add:
7 1/2 c. flour (about)
1 TBS salt
Knead to a soft, but not sticky dough and let rise.
Divide dough in half then roll into a 12" by 20" rectangle and spread on a mixture of :
1/2 c. butter or marg.
1 c. brown sugar

Roll up and cut into 1" slices and place on well greased cookie sheet.
Let rise until double in size and bake at 375 until golden brown.
Makes about 2 pans of cinnamon rolls.
