Cake mix cinnamon rolls
Cake mix cinnamon rolls recipe in the yeast bread category
Recipe ingredients:
- 3 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
- 2 1/2 cups warm water
- 1 (14.5 ounce) box white cake mix
- 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
Recipe method:
- In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture with the cake mix and 3 cups of the flour. Stir to combine.
- Add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition.
- When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
- Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil.
- Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.
- Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough into a 10 x 16-inch rectangle.
- Spread the softened butter over the rectangle; sprinkle on brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Starting from one of the long sides, roll up the rectangle and cut into 1 inch wide rolls. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking pan. Pour the melted butter into a small bowl and mix the white sugar and pecans in another small bowl.
- Dip the top of each roll in the melted butter, then in the sugar and pecan mixture, then place the topped rolls snugly into the prepared pan.
- Cover the rolls with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.
- Bake at 375 degrees F for 20 minutes or until rolls are golden.
