Mom use to take dough, roll it out into long ropes sort of and then wrap it around like a snake coiled up. She baked these and then put a simple frosting on them. Probably powdered sugar, a little vanilla and milk.
I make bread in a breadmaker using the following recipe that everybody really likes. It's simple, easy and quick to make. I wonder if I could just make a dough in the breadmaker using this recipe and then do as mom used to do. Or would the bread not be sweet enough?
My wife thinks I could sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon on the rolls before baking. Then when they come out frost them as mom did and they'd be fine.
I did remember that mom made biscuits that were white and her sweet rolls had a yellow tinge so it couldn't have been the same dough. 4 cups flour 2 heaping tablespoons sugar 2 1/2 tablespoons butter 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 12 ounces water at 85 to 90 degrees, I use a thermometer 1 packet of dry Fleischmann's yeast |
