Another recipe that comes from a Ward Cookbook and another family favorite. A twist (no pun intended) on traditional Cinnamon Rolls.
This recipe makes A LOT! so I usually make a half batch. I also use the dough setting in my bread machine to prepare the dough. 
- 2 cups warm water
- 1 Tbsp salt
- 2 Tbsp yeast
- 6 eggs
- 3/4 cup shortening
- 8 cups flour
- 3/4 c sugar
Melt
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine
Mix together
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup cinnamon
Dissolve yeast in water; add the salt, yeast, eggs, shortening, flour and 3/4 cup sugar. Let rise. Pinch a piece of dough about the size of a walnut and roll into a rope. Dip in melted butter and then roll in cinnamon/sugar mixture. Tie in a knot. Place on a greased cookie sheet. Let rise until almost double. Bake at 350° for 12-15 minutes. Frost while hot with your favorite icing.
(Stay tuned for MY favorite icing for these or for traditional cinnamon rolls.)
