FROSTED CINNAMON DANISH ROLLS

FOR THE DOUGH:
4 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar, divided use
1 tsp. salt
1 cup margarine, room temperature

1/4 cup warm water
3 egg yolks, slightly beaten, room temperature
1 cup milk, scalded and cooled to lukewarm
FOR THE FILLING:
butter, melted (as needed)
brown sugar (as needed)
3/4 tsp. cinnamon

Mix flour, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt in large mixing bowl. Cut in margarine using pastry blender.

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add egg yolks, milk and yeast mixture to flour mixture. Beat thoroughly several minutes. Cover and chill several hours or overnight.

WHEN READY TO PREPARE ROLLS:

Hi Barbara,

I haven't tried this recipe but except for the filling it looks somewhat similar to what you described. Hopefully someone will have the exact recipe you're looking for to share.

Happy Baking!
