Ingredients
  • ROLLS:
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 1 pkg (.25 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 pkg (3.4 ounce) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 1 egg, room temp
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 4 cups bread flour
  • 1/4 cup softened butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 6 tsp ground cinnamon
  • *optional* 3/4 cup chopped pecans, raisins, etc.
  • ICING:
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Directions
  1. Combine yeast & warm (115 degree) water (I added a tiny shot of honey for the yeast to "feed" on). Let proof for 5-10 minutes.
  2. Combine flour, pudding mix, salt, egg, milk, melted butter, 1/2 - 1 tsp of the cinnamon & yeast mixture in electric mixer bowl. Mix on lowish speed for a few minutes. Let dough rest in bowl for 30-60 minutes.
  3. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface & roll into a 17" x 10" rectangle.
  4. Spread the softened butter all over the dough and then sprinkle the brown sugar & cinnamon (pre combine the sugar & cinnamon before sprinkling, also add nuts or raisins if desired) all over the top of the buttery dough.
  5. Roll up the dough, starting from the long side.
  6. Cut into 15-16 pieces (I cut in in half & then repeat & repeat, etc. Works well)
  7. Place rolls in buttered 9x13 pan. Let rise in warm place until doubled in size (about 45 mins).
  8. Bake in 350 degree oven for 15-20 minutes.
  9. While rolls cool make icing:
  10. Combine butter, cream, & brown sugar in saucepan.
  11. Bring to a soft little bubbley boil & boil for 2 mins.
  12. Beat in the cup of powdered sugar & then pour icing over rolls. Mmmmmmm.

These are very easy to make. Most of the time spent is waiting..
You can also make these the day before and finish before baking. Once you get to step 7, instead of letting the dough rise, place in the refrigerator overnight. Bring the dough out and put in warm spot to rise before baking.


I'll bet these deserve a 10 instead the lowly 5 we give things here! Great post.


Yum! These sound so delicious. I'm going to have to make them and sit with my cup of coffee and savor every bite! Yep, I'd give this recipe a 10 also!!!


Oh I really want to make these!
^ 5 and thanks for sharing...


Pudding mix? I've never heard of such a thing. I am DEFINITELY going to have to try these
