Mix and let rise for 15 minutes
3 1/2 cups warm water
6 Tbs yeast
1 Tbs salt
1 cup oil
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
5 cups flour
Once done rising mix well. Add 5 1/2 more cups of flour. Mix until all flour is well blended. Beat additional 5 minutes. Spray counter top with Pam or lightly oil with shortening. (I found this didn't work as well as flouring the counter top). Turn out dough. Roll out to about 1/2 inch thick, spread with butter, cinnamon and sugar. Roll from long side of roll of dough to make rolls. Cut and put on baking sheet. Raise 10-20 minutes. Bake at 375 for 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly brown.
Additional roll ideas.
Sugar Bears: Use brown sugar with cinnamon
Cherries 'n cream: Cream cheese and cherry pie filling(or any pie filling)
Orange: Orange juice thickened to paste with flour.
Hawaiian: Crushed pineapple and coconut thickened with flour.
Rocky Road: Chocolate shavings, marshmallows and nuts
Christmas buns: Spread with butter, sprinkle crushed candy canes also mix in frosting
Mexican: Refried beans and meat. After baking sprinkle with cheese, olives and salsa. Return to oven long enough to melt cheese
Twists. Cut 1"x4" strips of dough and twist around 1/2"x4" strip of ham. Top with cheese after baking and melt in oven.
This recipe makes a lot. A friend suggested making the whole recipe and using half for a dinner option and the rest for desert.
I have done both the rocky road and Mexican buns. Both with wonderful.
