DUB EGBERT
1 package dry yeast
1/3 cup warm water (110 degrees)
3 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons warm butter
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/4 cups warm milk (80 to 100 degrees)
3/4 stick nearly melted butter
3/4 cups packed brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
Frosting
3/4 lb. confectioners sugar
3/4 stick warm butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon almond extract
A little milk
Mix yeast and 1/3 cup warm water in small mixing bowl and set aside for 5
minutes. Put flour, butter, salt,
sugar, yeast mixture and 1 cup of the warm milk in food processor bowl.
Mix for 2 to 3 minutes until dough forms a soft, somewhat sticky ball.
Add remaining milk if dough is too dry or add some flour if dough is too
sticky.
Place dough on a floured surface and kneed a few minutes by pressing the dough
with the ball of your hand, turning the dough ninety degrees, folding and
pressing again with the ball of your hand.
Form the dough into a ball and put in a non-greased, high sided
container. Cover and let rise until
double or triple in size (about an hour). Punch
the dough down and kneed a few times. Cover the dough and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Cut the dough in half. Cover
half and roll the remaining half into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
Cover dough with 1/2 of the butter.
Spread 1/2 the sugar mixture over the dough.
Roll the dough into a jelly roll starting with the long side of the
rectangle. Pinch a seal on the edge
after it is rolled. Cut into rolls
about 1 1/2 inches thick. Repeat
for other half of the dough. Place
in greased baking pan. Space rolls
apart as they will rise. Cover and
let rise for about 40 minutes. Bake
in a 350 degree oven for 25 minutes until golden brown.
After rolls have cooled frost. Place
the confectioners sugar, butter, vanilla, and almond extract in food processor.
Add milk until the right constancy is achieved.
Spread on rolls. Eat.
