Julia Rempel
Ingredients:
6 cups of flour (room temperature or a little warmer)
1 cup water
1 cup milk
3/4 cup sugar
3 packages of fresh yeast
teaspoon of cinnamon
1 stick of butter
pinch of salt
******************
Ingredients  for center of rolls
softened butter
cinnamon
sugar
brown sugar
chopped walnuts
******************
Put your flour in a large mixing bowl and make a well in the center of the flour
In a sauce pan combine butter, water, milk and sugar, heat until warm to the touch and the butter is melted
Remove from the heat and add the yeast, stir gently, let set until the yeast blooms (starts to bubble up)
Gently pour liquid into flour, add salt and mix well
Kneed dough for at least 10 minutes (dough is very sticky, do not add flour, kneed on a greased counter top)
Let dough rise until doubled or a little more, punch down and let it rise again until doubled
Roll dough out on a greased counter top until it is 3/4 to 1/2 inches thick
Spread softened butter on top of the dough as thick as you would like
Sprinkle on a good layer of cinnamon, sugar, brown sugar and walnuts
Gently roll dough up being careful not to make it too tight, this will make your dough tough
Cut roll into slices 1 to 2 inches thick and place in a greased baking pan and let rise again
Bake in a 350 degree oven for 25 minutes or until golden brown.

If you would like to frost the rolls, use any butter cream frosting thinned with milk to glaze the rolls.
