Method
Pastry
- Combine flour, baking powder and salt
- Cut-in shortening
- Add the milk, stirring with a knife until the dough is soft and slightly sticky
- Knead the dough until it "springs back" when you push your hand into it
- Roll the dough into a 9" by 13" (23 cm by 30 cm) rectangle (use a 9" by 13" (23 cm by 30 cm) baking pan as a mould for the size)
Filling
- Brush butter over the dough, leaving about ¼" (0.75 cm) around the edges clear
- Combine brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon and salt
- Sprinkle on buttered dough, leaving about ¼" (0.75 cm) around the edges clear
- Press the sugar mixture down
- Roll the dough lengthwise, as tight as you can
- Trim the edges and cut into 8 pieces
- Arrange the rolls in a small pan, so that all the rolls are touching
- Bake at 410°F (210ºC) for 15-20 minutes
Topping
- Combine icing sugar and cream
- Whisk them together
- Spread the mixture on the rolls when they have finished baking
Conversion Notes

- ↑ Baker's percentage is high and dough may be too soft to easily manage.
- ↑ Brown sugar presumed as packed.
- ↑ Icing or powdered sugar not specified as sifted or unsifted, presumed unsifted. Used light cream, also known as coffee or table cream for conversion.
