Cinnamon Rolls

CINNAMON ROLLS

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup warm milk (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
2 eggs, room temperature
1/3 cup margarine, melted
4 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup white sugar 
1 Tbls. yeast 
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1/3 cup butter, softened 
1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt

DIRECTIONS:

1.   Dissolve the yeast in the warm milk in a large bowl.  Let set for 10 minutes.  Mix in sugar, margarine, salt and eggs.  Add flour and mix well.  Knead the dough into a large ball, and dust lightly with flour.  Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.  After dough has doubled in size, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, cover and let rest of 10 minutes.

2.   In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon.

3.   Roll dough into a 16x21 inch rectangle.  Spread dough with 1/3 cup butter and sprinkle evenly with sugar/cinnamon mixture.  Roll up dough and cut into approximately 12 rolls.  Place rolls in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking pan.  Cover and let rise until nearly doubled (about 30 minutes).  Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

4.  Bake the rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.  While rolls are baking, beat together cream cheese, 1/4 cup butter, confectioners sugar, vanilla and salt.  Spread frosting on warm rolls before serving.
