Cinnamon Rolls

These are a little bit of trouble to prepare, but well worth it - they are yummy! If you like you can sprinkle some raisins and/or nuts over the filling before rolling up the roll. The icing on the top is optional.

Filling:
1/3 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon

Biscuit:
2 cups flour
3 tablespoons sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
1 egg
2/3 cup milk

Icing:
1/2 cup icing (confectioners) sugar
milk or cream

Filling:
Cream butter, brown sugar and cinnamon together. Set aside.

Biscuit:
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in food processor bowl. Cut in butter until crumbly. (Or prepare by hand with a pastry blender.)

Whisk egg and milk together. Add all at once to the dry ingredients and whirl briefly to combine.

Turn dough out onto a floured surface and roll or pat into a 9 or 10 inch square. Spread filling over, and roll up like a jelly roll. Cut into 12 slices.

Arrange rolls in a greased 9 inch square baking pan. Bake at 400 degrees F. for 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from pan.

Icing:
Combine icing sugar with enough milk or cream to make a thin glaze. Drizzle over the rolls.
