Time 45m

Yield 72 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 cups raisins
boiling water
2 tablespoons active dry yeast (2 pkgs)
1 tablespoon sugar
2 1/2 cups lukewarm water (110 F)
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
8 1/2-9 cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1/2 cup shortening
2 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
8 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup melted butter or 1/2 cup regular margarine
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
1 dash salt
3 tablespoons melted butter or 3 tablespoons regular margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons hot milk

Steps:

  • Place raisins in bowl; add enough boiling water to cover. Let stand 5 minutes to plump. Drain off water; reserve raisins.
  • Sprinkle yeast and 1 Tablespoon sugar over lukewarm water in large mixing bowl; stir to dissolve. Add ½ cup sugar, salt, ginger, 3 cups of the flour and eggs. Beat with electric mixer at medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Cover and let stand in warm place until foamy, about 40 minutes.
  • Add raisins and shortening to yeast mixture; mix well. Gradually stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough.
  • Turn dough out onto floured surface. Knead until smooth, about 10 minutes. Place dough in greased bowl, turning over once to grease top. Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, combine 2 ½ cups brown sugar and 8 teaspoons cinnamon in bowl; set aside.
  • Punch down dough. Divide dough in fourths. Let rest 10 minutes. Roll out each forth on floured surface to 18 x 8-inch rectangle. Spread each with one fourth of melted butter. Sprinkle each with one fourth of brown sugar-cinnamon mixture. Roll up like a jelly roll, starting at wide end. Pinch edges to seal. Cut each roll in 18 (1-inch) slices. Place slices, equally spaced, cut side down, in 3 greased 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pans, 24 rolls in each pan. Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine heavy cream, ½ cup brown sugar, vanilla and 1 teaspoons cinnamon in bowl; mix until blended. Spread one-third of cream mixture over each pan of rolls after they have doubled.
  • Bake in 375°F oven 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans immediately. Cool on racks. While still warm, drizzle with Vanilla Glaze. Makes 72.
  • Vanilla Glaze: Combine 3 cups sifted confectioners sugar, dash of salt, 3 Tablespoons melted butter or regular margarine, 1 teaspoons vanilla and 2 Tablespoons hot milk in bowl; beat until smooth. Add a little more milk, if necessary, to make a thin glaze.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, active yeast for best results. Proof the yeast in warm water with a little sugar before using to ensure it is active.
  • For a richer, more flavorful dough, use milk instead of water.
  • Be sure to knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help develop the gluten in the flour, which will give the rolls a chewy texture.
  • If you don't have a stand mixer, you can knead the dough by hand. Just be sure to knead it for at least 10 minutes.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will take about 1 hour.
  • When rolling out the dough, be sure to use a lightly floured surface. This will prevent the dough from sticking.
  • Roll the dough out into a rectangle that is about 12x18 inches. Don't worry if the dough is not perfect.
  • Spread the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the dough. Then, roll the dough up jelly-roll style, starting from the long side.
  • Pinch the edges of the dough together to seal it. Then, cut the dough into 12 even slices.
  • Place the rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Let the rolls rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
  • Bake the rolls at 375 degrees F for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  • Let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

These special cinnamon rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of warm, fluffy rolls that are sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a special breakfast or dessert, give these cinnamon rolls a try. You won't be disappointed.
