Yummy Cake Mix Rolls

Cake Mix Rolls
3 Cups warm water
2 Tbsp. yeast
1 Tbsp. sugar
2 eggs
2 Tbsp. oil
1 cake mix (white, spice, lemon, orange, or chocolate)
5 1/2 - 6 1/2 cups flour (enough to form a soft dough)

Dissolve yeast in water and sugar and let proof (get foamy). Beat eggs and add to yeast foam; add oil. Mix in cake mix and flour to form soft dough.
Let rise until doubled and put out on floured board. Roll out to make cinnamon rolls, twists or orange rolls. Spread butter over rolled out dough. Sprinkle cinnamon mixture over all the dough. Roll up and cut into pieces. Raise for 20 - 30 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes then frost.

Cinnamon Roll filling
soft butter to spread on dough
mixture of brown sugar and cinnamon

Frosting
2 sticks butter (softened)
8oz cream cheese (softened)
2 tsp. vanilla
1 bag powdered sugar

Beat butter and cream cheese until fluffy. Add vanilla and powdered sugar and beat for several minutes until smooth and fluffy. If you like a thinner frosting add a little milk until you get the consistency you want.


This recipe comes from a Holden Utah Relief Society Cookbook

Tyson had a great time taking these yummy cinnamon rolls around to all of our neighbors. I loved watching him walk really carefully with the plate to their homes and then run back with a huge smile on his face for the next plate.
