SUNDAY'S RECIPE- MASHED POTATO SWEET ROLLS

This has nothing to do with the recipe...its just our "puppies" being scared of that foreign substance falling from the sky Friday nite....y'know, RAIN!!!








MASHED POTATO SWEET ROLLS








1/3 cup instant mashed potato flakes *** 1/2 cup boiling water *** 1 cup buttermilk *** 2 large eggs *** 6 TBSP soft butter *** 1/4 cup sugar *** 1 tsp salt *** 3-1/2 cups flour *** 2 tsp instant dry yeast

Combine flakes and boiling water in bread machine and stir by hand. Add rest of ingredients in order listed. Set bread machine on Dough Only setting and start. Lift lid after machine has started to knead and check if enough flour has been added (dough should pull away from sides...add small amount of flour as needed) Let machine run its course...usually 1-1/2 hours to mix, knead, and rise. Remove dough from machine and place on floured surface and pat down flat into 12" x 18" rectangle, spread 1/2 stick of softened butter onto dough. In small bowl mix:



3/8 cup brown sugar *** 2 TBSP white sugar *** 1 TBSP cinnamon *** 2/3 cup chopped pecans, optional. Sprinkle this mixture onto dough and roll up the long way, then cut into 12 equal parts. Place into greased 9" x 13" pan or similar sized pan...let rise till double in size. Bake in 375 degree oven 16-18 minutes, remove from oven and drizzle your favorite icing/frosting.



** These rolls are incredibly light and fluffy...could be a new FFF (Funk Family Favorite)! I separate them, wrap them individually, and freeze for my breakfasts during the week.
