1 egg
1 egg yolk beaten (save egg white)
3 1/2 cup flour

Mix yeast, water and 1 tablespoon sugar and let yeast proof. Then add egg,egg yolk and mix. Add cooled scalded mix,sugar,salt,and melted butter. Add flour and knead for a bit. Let rise. Punch down and knead again. Roll out and spread on filling. Roll up and slice into whatever thickness you like. Place onto greased pan and let rise. When they have risen bake at 375 for 25 to 35 min.

Remove from oven and pour on topping and defend against family until cool enough to safely serve.

Filling

1 cup brown sugar
saved egg white plus one more egg white, beaten until frothy

Melt butter and add everything to it then spread on rolled out dough

Topping

1 teaspoon karo syrup (white corn syrup)
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup coarse chopped pecans.

mix altogether and pour over rolls as soon as they come out of the oven.

If something doesn't make sense or a step looks like it might be missing let me know.We make these often enough during the winter that I don't often think about the individule steps anymore.

That looks very yummy, mummy, it looks to us like a cross between what we would call cinnamon swirls and Chelsea buns, both of which we are rather keen on, so maybe try that sometime.

I was also thinking that they sound very familiar, DAG. Just checked in one of my cookbooks (The Dairy Book of Home Cookery, British book), and that is where I remember them from, having made them often when PV was small. Called Spice and Cinnemon Rings in this book. I've seen them elsewhere called Danish Cinnemon Rolls. Having now seen yours, Audra, I think I must make them again very soon. Mmmhhhhh!!

I can't say that I have ever seen karo / white corn syrup over here, don't know about in England. You can get pecans only on the very rare occasion over here in Germany, so I always substitute walnuts for them.

I've never put nuts on them when I used to make them, but shall do so next time. We still have some own walnuts in the freezer (wonderful flavour!) that would go very nicely on them.

Thanks for jogging my memory, Audra, and also for your recipe.

Dag ..any chance of adding this wonderful recipe to the print versions?
Yummy

I have never used walnuts in this recipe but they would probably work okay. Not sure what you would use in place of the syrup. Maybe pick some up the next time you're in Florida and take it back with you?

These are melt in mouth good and also good warm with melted butter drizzled over them.

[DAG]

Audra you have been very naughty, talking about melted butter drizzled over things........in front of kedi and Arney! ;D

Fortunately kedi is away until the end of the week.

Now melted butter on sweet corn...........ummmm, that's allowed!

[shadowdragon]

Can they not have melted butter?

[kedigato]

Audra, Arney, Letitia and I just LOVE lashings of butter. We also butter to the edges of our bread.

The three also love gallons of gravy over our food, even our potatoes (Alfie, are you listening?). Did you not read what cheeky Alfie wrote? He asked DAG if Arney had a life jacket on when she ate her mince!

Even though I said he was cheeky, I admit to having a laugh at the mere thought of such. ;D ;D

Apologies for taking so long but it was on the end of a long list of things to do!

On top of that it took me several days to work out and remember how to do it!

But it is not simple and involves using the following programmes:

Open Office
Adobe Photoshop
Adobe Acrobat
Webs.com Website

Always the things that look simple are the most complicated! ;D
