These light rolls are a marvelous variation of the traditional sweet roll, and the ease of preparation -- no kneading and only one rising -- is a real plus.

Yield: Makes 24 rolls.

  • 4 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup butter or margarine
  • 1 tablespoon dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 cup milk, scalded and cooled
  • Butter
  • Sugar
  • Cinnamon

Sift flour, salt, and sugar together. Cut in butter. Dissolve yeast in warm water, and add egg and milk. Blend with dry ingredients. Refrigerate overnight. Divide dough in half; roll each half into a large rectangle. Spread with soft butter and sprinkle generously with sugar and cinnamon. Roll up each rectangle and slice each into 12 tolls. Let rolls rise about 1 hour. Bake at 350 degrees F for 15 to 20 minutes, or until nicely browned. Remove from oven and spread with a confectionersa€ (TM) sugar glaze flavored with almond extract. Serve warm or cold.
