Ingredients
Dough
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm milk
- ½ cup sugar
- ⅓ cup butter softened
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 teaspoon salt
Filling
- ½ cup butter softened
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- ½ cup raisins
Instructions
- 1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of flour and yeast.
- 2. In a saucepan, heat milk, sugar, butter, and salt until warm (120-130°F) and butter is almost melted.
- 3. Add milk mixture to flour mixture; add egg. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes.
- 4. Stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can.
- 5. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately soft dough that is smooth and elastic (3 to 5 minutes total).
- 6. Shape dough into a ball. Place in a lightly greased bowl, turning once to grease surface. Cover; let rise in a warm place until double in size (about 1 hour).
- 7. Punch dough down. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide in half. Cover; let rest for 10 minutes.
- 8. Roll each half of dough into a 12x8-inch rectangle. Spread with softened butter. Combine brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over butter. Sprinkle with raisins.
- 9. Roll up each rectangle, starting from a long side. Seal seams. Slice each roll into 12 pieces. Place slices, cut sides down, in greased baking pans.
- 10. Cover and let rise until nearly double in size (about 30 minutes).
- 11. Bake in a 375°F oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly before serving.
