ONE HOUR CINNAMON ROLLS

3 1/2 cups warm water

3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup canola oil
6 tbsp yeast
1 tbsp salt
3 eggs
10 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup melted butter
1 cup sugar
1 tbsp ground cinnamon

Mix the warm water, sugar, oil and yeast; allow to sit 15 minutes.

Add the salt, eggs, and flour. Mix for 10 minutes then allow to rest for 10 minutes.

Oil a flat surface but do not use flour. Dump dough onto the oiled surface; divide in half. Press one half into a rectangle; brush with  half the melted butter. Combine the cinnamon and sugar; sprinkle half over the melted butter. Roll the dough up tightly. Cut into 12 rolls and place on a greased cookie sheet. Repeat the process with the other half of the dough, butter, and cinnamon/sugar mixture. Allow to rise to about double in size.

Bake rolls at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes until browned.

Remove from oven and allow to cool until lukewarm. Frost with the following frosting.

Frosting:

1/2 cup butter
2 dashes salt
2 tsp vanilla
6 cups powdered sugar
milk to make spreading consistency

Frost the cinnamon rolls.

Variations: Make orange rolls by using some orange juice with the milk.
