===For the dough, you will need:===
*1 cup milk
*2 eggs, beaten
*1/3 cup butter, softened
*4 ½ cups flour, plus extra to roll the dough
*1 tsp. salt
*½ cup sugar
*2 ½ tsp. instant yeast (or two ¼ oz. packages)
===For the filling, you will need:===
*1 cup packed brown sugar
*2 ½ tbsp. ground cinnamon
*1/3 cup butter
*1 cup raisins, soaked in a bowl of water (optional)
===For the icing, you will need:===
*3 oz. cream cheese
*¼ cup butter
*1 ½ cup icing sugar
*½ tsp. vanilla
*Salt
===Directions:===
#In a small microwave proof bowl, heat the milk slightly until it is just lukewarm.
#Add the yeast and stir, and allow the mixture to rest for 10 minutes.
#In a larger bowl, mix the flour, salt and sugar.
#Add the eggs, butter and milk mixture.
#Turn dough onto a lightly floured counter and knead for several minutes, until dough is pliant and smooth.
#Place the dough in a large clean bowl, and cover with plastic wrap or a clean tea towel.
#Place the bowl in a warm part of the kitchen and let the dough rise until double, approximately one hour.
#Punch the dough down, and place on a clean surface that has been lightly dusted with flour.
#Using a rolling pin and short strokes, roll the dough into a rectangle that measures roughly 21” wide and 18” long.
#Soften the butter until nearly melted, and spread over the entire surface of the dough.
#Mix the cinnamon and brown sugar, and sprinkle evenly over the butter.
#If you choose to add raisins, sprinkle them over the brown sugar mixture.
#Roll the dough lengthwise, beginning at the bottom, keeping the roll as tight as possible; you should end up with a roll that is about 21” long.
#Using a sharp, non-serrated knife, slice the roll into 1 ¼” slices.
#Grease two 8x8 inch baking pans, and lightly dust with flour.
#Place the rolls into the pans, leaving a little space around each one to give them room to expand. #Cover the pans with plastic wrap or a clean tea towel, and leave them in a warm part of the kitchen for 30 minutes.
#Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 F/ 204 C.
#After 30 mints.,place the pans in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes,or until golden brown on top.
#While the cinnamon buns are baking, mix all the icing ingredients together and beat until smooth. #Serve the cinnamon buns while still warm, with a spoonful of the cream cheese icing on top.
#Makes approximately 16 cinnamon buns. Enjoy!
