Cinnamon roll

Makes 24 cinnamon rolls.

1 cup milk
1/2 cup butter
1 cup water
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
6 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 cups dark brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened


DIRECTIONS

Warm the milk in a small saucepan until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Mix in the butter; stir until melted. Add water and let cool until lukewarm.

In a large bowl, combine the milk mixture, yeast, white sugar, salt, eggs and 2 cups flour; stir well to combine.
Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic.
Divide dough into two pieces. Roll each piece into a 12"x9" rectangle.

In a bowl, stir together the cinnamon and brown sugar. Spread each piece with half of the butter, half of the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture. Roll up dough, using a little water to seal the seam.
Cut each roll into 12 slices using a very sharp knife or dental floss. Place rolls onto two 9x13 inch greased baking pans.
Cover and let rise until almost doubled, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 190 degrees C. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.
