CINNAMON ROLL CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375ºF. Pour butter into a 9×13 glass baking dish and spread evenly. Cut each cinnamon roll into 8 small pieces and layer evenly over the bottom of the dish. (I like to use kitchen shears or a pizza cutter to easily cut the cinnamon rolls.)
• In a large liquid measuring glass or small bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon. Make sure the egg is fully beaten within the milk. Pour egg mixture over the cinnamon rolls. Be sure the egg mixture is very evenly distributed. Drizzle syrup over egg mixture.
• At this point, you can cover and refrigerate overnight or immediately bake the casserole. Bake at 375º for 20-25 minutes or until cinnamon rolls are golden brown.
• Cool casserole for about 5 minutes. Remove covers from icing; microwave on medium (50%) 10 to 15 seconds or until thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle with icing, and enjoy!

CINNAMON BUNS

Steps:

• Buns: When you are ready to bake, preheat the oven to 170 degrees F. Prepare 2 (9 by 12-inch) rectangular baking dishes by spraying with nonstick oil spray.
• In a mixer fitted with a dough hook, mix together starter, granulated sugar, vegetable oil, salt, water, yeast and flour.
• After mixing the dough for about 2 minutes, remove the dough to a bowl sprayed with nonstick oil.
• Cook's Note: If the dough mix is too loose, add more flour.
• Cover with a towel and let rise until doubled in size. The rising process will take 1 to 4 hours, depending on the altitude and weather at the time and place you are making the buns.
• When doubled, dump the whole pile of dough onto a well-floured surface and with a rolling pin manipulate the dough to make a rectangle about 1/4-inch thick.
• Filling: Melt 2 sticks of butter to where it is creamy and spreadable. Spread the butter onto the dough triangle making sure you spread thoroughly to all corners. Sprinkle brown sugar and then cinnamon over the butter making sure that the whole triangle is covered, corner to corner. Top with chopped pecans and raisins.
• Roll the dough into a tight roll. Cut with a serrated knife into 2-inch long rolls and place into the baking dishes.
• Cook's Note: If using the rectangle baking dish, snuggle the buns together as if they were trying to keep each other very warm. You might want to manipulate the size of the pan to make sure that the buns are very snug in the pan.
• You do not have to cover the rolls, but you need to let them rise in an oven set at 170 degrees F to proof until you see that they are almost but not quite doubled in size, about 40 to 50 minutes. When you see that they are at that point, turn the oven up to 350 degrees F. Bake for 25 minutes until you see that they are truly golden on the top.
• Cook's Note: A good test is when you take them out of the oven and push on the very center of a bun; if it sinks inward easily and feels doughy, they will need 5 to 10 minutes more cooking time.
• Glaze/Icing: In a mixer beat powdered sugar and half-and-half until smooth and without lumps. Take the buns out of the oven and put them on a wire rack. Immediately glaze them with a pastry brush. After glazing all of the buns, go back over and glaze once again.
• Cook's Note: If you desire, you can melt more butter on the top before serving. If warming buns after they are cool, 20 seconds in the microwave revives that incredible hot-out-of-the-oven taste. However, even cold, they are awesome.
