Today on the homestead the children decided to make cinnamon rolls for dinner dessert and while entering the recipe into our cook book, I decided to share it with all our followers. Its a quick and easy recipe and all ages can have fun while creating it! Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Filling: In a bowl combine 1 cup brown sugar and 5 tbsp cinnamon. Before adding 1 cup soft butter take cinnamon sugar mixture and sprinkle a thin layer on bottom of greased baking pan. Now Cream butter into mixture and set aside.
Dough: In a bowl combine 2 cups flour, 4 tsp baking powder, 2 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp salt, 4 tsp butter, 3/4 cup milk. Stir to form your dough. Add a bit more flour if needed.
Roll dough out on floured surface to a 1/4 inch rectangle (ours always seems to be oval shaped) and using a spatula evenly spread cinnamon butter all over dough. Roll dough up tight and using a sharp knife cut into 12 pieces. Place in baking dish about 1 inch apart and place in pre-heated oven at 400 F for 25 minutes. Remove and serve hot or cool.
