Dough:

1. In a bowl, mix the following ingredients and let them sit for 15 minutes:

• 3 1/2 cups warm water
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup oil
• 6 tablespoons yeast (4 1/2 Saf-Instant)

1. After 15 minutes, add:

• 1 tablespoon salt
• 3 eggs
• 10 1/2 cups flour

1. Mix everything together for 10 minutes, and then let it sit for an additional 10 minutes.
2. Grease a cupboard with oil (don’t use flour), and dump out the dough. Divide it in half.
3. Press one half out into a rectangle. Spread it with 1/4 cup of melted butter and a generous amount of the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
4. Roll it up tightly but not too tight.
5. Divide the roll into 12 individual rolls and place them on a greased cookie sheet.
6. Repeat the process with the other half of the dough. Let the rolls rise.
7. Bake for 12-15 minutes at 400°F (200°C).

Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture:

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Frosting:

• 1 cube of butter (equivalent to 1/2 cup)
• 2 dashes of salt
• 2 teaspoons of vanilla
• 6 cups of powdered sugar
• Milk

Optional Variations:

• Orange Rolls: Add orange concentrate to the regular frosting.
• Chocolate Rolls: Add baking cocoa and a few drops of water to the regular frosting.
• Cream Cheese Rolls: Add cream cheese to the regular frosting.

Notes:

• 1 cube of butter equals 1/2 cup.
• Orange concentrate refers to frozen orange juice.
• You can use regular flour, not self-rising.
• The recipe genuinely calls for 6 tablespoons of yeast (SafInstant). If using yeast packets, you may need to convert.
• The recipe indeed requires 10 1/2 cups of flour.
• While the rolls can be frozen, they are so easy to make that freezing them might not be necessary.
• The rising time can vary depending on factors like room temperature and humidity. Simply let them rise until they’re sufficiently puffy.
• The calorie count isn’t provided, so no need to worry about that.
• If you want to make half the number of rolls, simply halve the recipe.
