Instructions
- 1In a large bowl, combine the sugar, salt, and scalded milk. Let the mixture cool until lukewarm. In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in the lukewarm water. Add the yeast mixture to the milk mixture. Add 1 1/2 cups of flour and mix well. Cover the bowl and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
- 2Once the dough has doubled in size, add the melted butter and 4 tablespoons of sugar. Add more flour, enough to make the dough manageable to knead. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough into a sheet about 1/2 inch thick. Spread with the melted butter, 1/2 cup sugar, and cinnamon. Roll up the dough like a jelly roll. Cut into slices about 3/4 inch thick. Place the slices in a greased baking pan, leaving about an inch of space between each roll. Let rise again for about 15 minutes.
- 3Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
