It's almost as easy as watching them make cinnamon rolls at Cinna-bon. But you make these yourself, and you make yourself proud!
Ingredients:
2 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup shortening
3/4 cup milk
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons margarine
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Sift flour and salt in bowl, cut in shortening until mixture is like cornmeal.
3. Remove 1 cup to bowl; blend with milk to form paste. (Don't try to smooth).
4. Add paste to shortening; mix enough to hold pastry together.
5. Put dough on dusted, floured surface and knead lightly.
6. Roll into a rectangular shape (10 x 18 ); sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.
7. Dot with butter.
8. Roll lengthwise and seal edge.
9. Place on greased sheet, edge-side down and bake for 12-15 minutes.
