Delicious Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients

• 2 packages of yeast (you can use rapid rising yeast if you are in a crunch)
• 1/2 cup warm water
• 2 cups and 1 tablespoon sugar
• 2/3 cup margarine
• 6 large eggs, beaten
• 1 cup dried mashed potato flakes (use the real ones)
• 2 1/2 cups milk, scalded
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 6 cups of flour
• 1 cup of melted salted butter
• 1/3 cup cinnamon

Directions

1. Dissolve the yeast in the warm water and add 1 tablespoon of sugar. Set aside.
2. Mix 1 cup of sugar, the margarine, eggs, and mashed potato flakes in a large bowl. Preferably, use a KitchenAid, but if you don�t have one, use a hand-held mixer or a regular whisk.
3. Add the milk and salt to the batter. Mix well.
4. Slowly mix in the yeast mixture and the flour. The mix should be a sticky dough. Continue to knead it in the KitchenAid or with a spoon for 10 minutes. Then, let the dough rise until it doubles.
5. Preheat oven to 350�F.
6. Roll out the dough on a well-floured surface.
7. You will need ample space, such as a table. Roll it to about 1/4 inch thick to a size of about 2.5 by 3 feet.
8. Use a brush to paint the canvas with the melted butter. Liberally sprinkle the remaining sugar on the dough. Then, sprinkle on the cinnamon.
9. Roll the dough tightly like a jelly roll. Then cut the dough into 2-inch wide segments. Place the buns onto a cookie sheet. Place then with two inches of space on all sides as they will expand in the oven.
10. Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool for five minutes before removing from the sheet. Enjoy while hot!
