Add half the flour and beat until smooth. Stir in enough of the remaining flour until dough is slightly stiff (dough will be sticky).

- When doubled, punch down dough and let rest 5 minutes. Roll out on floured surface into a 15 x 20 inch rectangle.
- To prepare filling: Spread dough with 1/2 cup melted butter. Mix together 1 1/2 cups sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over buttered dough. Sprinkle with walnuts and raisins, if desired.
- Roll up jellyroll-fashion and pinch edge together to seal. Cut into 12 to 15 slices.

CINNAMON ROLLS (PAULA DEEN)
I watched Paula make these numerous times on her show and I just now got around to making them myself. I have to say these are by far the best cinnamon rolls I have ever made. The dough is so soft and easy to work with (and can you believe she didn't load it with butter?) and the baked rolls are fluffy, flavorful, and perfect! I made the filling 1/2 white sugar-1/2 brown sugar along with the cinnamon since I prefer a darker, richer filling. The recipe says to bake in a preheated oven for 30 minutes, but I put my rolls into the oven and THEN preheated it and they were baked perfectly after being in the oven for about 25 minutes. What can I say? These are perfect!

CINNAMON ROLLS WITH WALNUTS
I looked on-line for cinnamon rolls that weren't deep fried, and found two pictures that were of the same cinnamon rolls, but with different recipes, so I used information from both. PLEASE NOTE, I've made these since my first posting, and they come out moister, and better, if you pack them in a rectangular 9X12 inch baking...

Steps:
- 1. Dissolve the yeast in 1 cup of WARM water. Allow to sit about 5 minutes. Stir to make sure all of the yeast is dissolved. Whenever I use yeast, I always add a little sugar to the water so I can see how fast the yeast is working.
- 2. In a large bowl, add the four cups of flour and make a hole in the center to add the yeast mixture, the yoghurt, sugar, oil and egg. Let the sticky mixture rest for 8 minutes.
- 3. Using a plastic spatula, scrape the dough out onto a floured board and kneed it until it becomes smooth. If it's too sticky, cover your hands with flour and kneed it.
- 4. Put dough in a large bowl with lightly oiled sides. I used butter, but oil will work. Cover and set in a warm place using plastic wrap to cover the top of the bowl.. Allow to rise until the dough has doubled in size.
- 5. Once the dough has risen - I waited about three hours for it to more than double - On a floured surface, knead the dough until smooth and then roll it out into a large rectangle. Generously spread the room temperature butter over the top of the rectangle of dough.
- 6. In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and the sugar and sprinkle evenly over the top of the buttered dough.
- 7. Sprinkle the chopped walnut pieces evenly over the sugar-cinnamon mixture. (OPTIONAL)
- 8. Beginning at the widest side, roll up as evenly and tightly as possible. Cut into rolls at 1 inch intervals with kitchen knife.
- 9. Place on a greased cookie sheet, or parchment-covered cookie sheet or baking dish. Cover and set in a warm, dry place until doubled in size.
- 10. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20-30 minutes. Remove from the oven to begin to cool. While still warm , drizzle with the glaze.
- 11. TO PREPARE THE GLAZE: In a small mixing bowl, add vanilla to the sifted confectioner's sugar. VERY SLOWLY add warm water a teaspoon at a time until the mixture gets to a consistency to allow you to drizzle it over the warm cinnamon rolls. If you get it too thin, simply add more sugar.
Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh, high-quality ingredients.
- Make sure your butter is cold before using it. This will help to create flaky layers in your cinnamon rolls.
- Don't over-knead the dough. Over-kneading will make the cinnamon rolls tough.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will help to ensure that the cinnamon rolls are light and fluffy.
- When rolling out the dough, make sure it is not too thick. If the dough is too thick, the cinnamon rolls will be dense and heavy.
- Be generous when sprinkling the cinnamon sugar mixture on the dough. This will ensure that the cinnamon rolls are flavorful.
- Bake the cinnamon rolls until they are golden brown. This will help to ensure that they are cooked through.
- Let the cinnamon rolls cool slightly before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- Enjoy your cinnamon rolls warm, with a cup of coffee or tea.
Conclusion:
Cinnamon rolls are a delicious and classic breakfast treat. They are perfect for any occasion, from a lazy Sunday morning to a holiday brunch. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make cinnamon rolls at home that are just as good as, if not better than, the ones you would find at a bakery. So next time you are in the mood for something sweet and satisfying, give this cinnamon roll recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
