Famous Sticky Buns

So Abel asked me the other day if I would make my "famous" sticky buns for General Conference which I was perfectly okay with because I LOVE them. He obviously doesn't know that my "famous" recipe actually came from my sister Sydney and I have no idea where she got it, so no credit actually goes to me.


 I think they worked out pretty dang good this time 'round.


So here they are just as a sticky bun, but if you have a mega sweet tooth like I do, then adding frosting to the top makes this treat only better. 


The recipe is SO easy..

Dough:
3 1/2 C Flour
1 Tbsp Yeast
1 1/4 C Milk
1/4 C Sugar
1 tsp Salt
1 Egg

Sugar mixture:
Brown Sugar
White Sugar
Cinnamon
* I don't have an exact recipe for this because everyone likes a different combination. I personally use more brown sugar than white and make mine fairly cinnamony.


Sticky Sauce:
1/2 C Butter
1/2 C Brown Sugar
4 Tbsp Light Corn Syrup


Warm milk to 90-110 degrees and add yeast. Let it grow. When it's done mix all ingredients together and knead for 3-5 minutes. Let dough rise in a warm place until doubled. When this is close to being finished rising, start the sticky sauce. Put all ingredients into a pan and bring to a boil. Once it boils, pour on the bottom of the greased 9x13 pan that you are going to cook your cinnamon rolls in. After the dough is doubled, flour an area on your counter to roll out the dough. Roll out the dough into a nice, large square/rectangle. Spread soft butter onto the dough. Spread the sugar mixture to all edges of the dough. Now it's time to roll! After rolling, I cut the dough in half and in half again until I have 12 rolls. Place the rolls into the sticky sauce. Now it's time to rise the rolls again. Place them again in warm place and let them double in size. When they are risen cook them in the oven for 20 minutes at 375 degrees. Enjoy!

Tips: When rising dough I heat my oven to 200 degrees and turn the oven off. I then cover the bowl with the dough with plastic wrap and place it in the oven to help the dough rise.
