Ingredients:
1 cup 2% milk
2 tablespoons vegetable
shortening
1 teaspoon salt
1 cake compressed yeast
1/4 cup warm water
3 to 4 cups unbleached white
flour
1 tablespoon melted butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Glaze:
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
3 tablespoons 2% milk
Instructions:
In a small saucepan, heat
milk to just simmering. Add shortening and salt, remove from heat, and
set aside to cool to lukewarm.
In a large bowl, dissolve
yeast in warm water. Add lukewarm milk mixture and stir with a wooden spoon.
Gradually add flour, beating vigorously, until a soft dough forms. Continue
beating for 3 minutes, or until your arm wears out. Cover with a towel
or plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise until doubled, about 1-1/2
hours.
Lightly butter a 9- x 13-inch
baking pan. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, knead a few
times, and roll gently into a rectangle 1/2-inch to 5/8-inch thick (about
12-x 8-inches). Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.
Roll up from long side; seal edge. Cut roll into 12 equal slices. Place
slices in prepared pan, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled,
about 1-1/2 hours.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a small bowl, whisk together sugar, cinnamon, and milk to make a glaze.
Bake rolls for 15 minutes; remove from oven and spoon glaze over the top,
letting it seep down into the swirls of dough. Return to oven and bake
for 5 to 10 minutes, or until glaze is bubbly. (Watch carefully to avoid
scorching.) Remove from oven and cool on rack.
