CINNAMON BUNS

Steps:

• Scald milk and stir in 6 tbsp butter, 6 tbsp sugar and salt.
• Cool to lukewarm.
• Dissolve 1 tsp sugar in warm water.

• Divide into two, roll each section into rectangles.
• Sprinkle on filling (filling: 1 cup melted butter, 1 1/4 cup sugar and 2 tbsp cinnamon- divided between two rectangles).
• Roll up and slice (a good way to slice pieces is to use a piece of string, place it on the underside of the roll and cross over opposite ends at top, cutting the piece).
• Grease cookie tray with melted butter.
• Place slices in tray, leaving enough space to allow them to expand, but not enough that the filling melts out.
• Place greased waxed paper over slices and allow to double in size again for one hour.
• Bake in 350 degree oven for 35 to 45 minutes.
• Remove immediately from tray.
• If desired, buns can be iced.
