Cinnamon Rolls

(This is Jami's Recipe)

1 cup warm water (110-115 degrees)
1/3 cup oil
1/4 cup sugar
2 Tbsp yeast
1 egg
1 tsp. salt
3-4 cups flour (about 3 1/4)

Mix warm water, sugar, oil and yeast together. Let rest 15 min., then add egg, salt and flour. Mix and knead into a medium soft dough. Let rise 10-20 min. Roll out and spread filling on and then roll up. Cut to make cinnamon rolls. (I use floss, it works wonders.) Put into greased pan and let rise 10-20 min. Bake 10 min. at 425 degrees.

Filling:
(This is what I use)

3 Tbsp cinnamon
1 cup brown sugar (packed)

Mix cinnamon and brown sugar together in separate bowl. After rolling out the dough spread a very generous amount of margarine on the dough. Then sprinkle filling mix on the butter and roll up.

Vanilla Buttercream Frosting

3 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup butter or margarine (softened)
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 Tbsp milk

Mix sugar and butter in medium bowl with spoon or mixer on low speed. Stir in vanilla and 1 Tbsp. of milk. Gradually beat in enough remaining milk to make frosting smooth and spreadable.
