Marmee Overnight Cinnamon Rolls in a BOSCH mixer

& Endless Hot Mocha Mix

Overnight Cinnamon Rolls You will be doing this the evening before you want to serve your cinnamon rolls that next morning. This gives you the luxury of freshfresh-baked hot rolls with no clean up or muss and fuss when you are ready to bake and serve.

YEILD: Makes 1 (9x13) pan + 1 (8x8) pan DOUBLE RECIPE makes 3 (9x13) pans.

Equip your BOSCH mixer with the dough hooks & splash ring.

Add ingredients into the mixer bowl in this order: 2/3 cup butter or margarine, melted 2 cups very warm water (120° - no hotter) 1 scant Tbsp. sea salt 1/2 cup dry milk powder 2/3 cup sugar 2 cups whole wheat flour On top of the flour sprinkle 2 heaping Tbsp. of SAF Yeast Turn on mixer on #1 and combine ingredients just briefly about 30 seconds.

Add in: 2 eggs, beaten slightly 3 cups unbleached bread flour ( I use KING ARTHUR brand) Beat on speed #1 until dough is a smooth batter. Add in approximately 3 cups more unbleached flour, with the mixer running on speed #2, add just enough until dough is soft and workable (just slightly sticky) but workable. You may need a little more flour but be careful not to add to much as that will make a heavy, dense roll and you want them light and fluffy! ☺ Knead the dough for 4 minutes on speed #3. Stop the mixer and wait for the dough to double up—about 30-50 minutes. Turn mixer on to deflate dough and take out of bowl onto a clean very lightly floured surface.

Overnight Cinnamon Rolls, cont.

Your dough is resting on the lightly floured surface in a big blob!

Put your bowl and hooks directly into the dishwasher now or fill it with hot soapy water and take a couple of minutes to wash it out and put it to drain—it will only take but a few minutes and clean up is much easier when now rather than later! Ask me how I know?

Prepare your pans: As stated at the beginning this recipe makes 1 (9x13) pan + 1 (8x8) pan. Melt 1 stick of butter and drizzle it into the bottoms of the pans. Sprinkle the pans on top of the butter with a cinnamon sugar mixture (1/4 cup sugar + 2 tsp. cinnamon) Roll your dough out with a pastry roller to about a 15x20� rectangle. Spread the dough with some melted butter and sprinkle heavily with cinnamon/sugar (1/2 cup sugar + 2 Tbsp. cinnamon) That seems like a lot of cinnamon so cut it back if you prefer but we like them like that! Then sprinkle over with finely chopped walnuts or pecans or almonds and raisins if you like those additions. Roll up lengthwise like a jelly roll and pinch the ends shut.

Stretch out roll to even it up and cut into 18 slices. 12 should fit in the 9x13 pan and 6 in the 8x8 pan. If you have doubled the recipe you will have 36 slices and I divide the original dough blob into 3rds and roll each one out separately and cut each roll into 12 slices.

Now cover nicely with some plastic wrap ( I lightly grease my wrap with pan spray) and pop them into the refrigerator. Time for bed after you have cleaned up. Sweet Dreams!

When arising in the morning and you are ready for hot rolls, pop them in the oven and bake at 350° for 20-30 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and frost with your prepared frosting. Serve and listen to all the oohhs and aaahhhhs!

Creamy Roll Frosting Prepare this the evening before and keep it sealed in the refrigerator until ready to put rolls in the oven. Then remove it from the refrigerator to take the chill off the frosting while the rolls bake. Ice the rolls after they have cooled slightly.

The key to this frosting is whipping it in the BOSCH with the wire whips. This makes a good bit of frosting, enough for a double batch so make less if you don’t want as much icing on your rolls.

Add to BOSCH bowl equipped with wire whips: 1 stick very soft butter (spreadable consistency) WARNING!! (hard,cold butter will bend or break the wire whips!)

1 (8 oz.) very soft cream cheese, cut into small pieces 1 tsp. vanilla flavoring 1 tsp. lemon juice 4 cups of 10X powdered icing sugar Place lid on mixer so sugar will not poof out.

Beat for 3 minutes on speed #3. Frost warm cinnamon rolls.

Hope you enjoy them to the last bite!

I love to make these and give them as gifts.

Everyone raves over them!

Endless Hot Mocha Mix If your family loves to drink cups of hot mocha to warm the soul and tummy, you will love this LARGE batch of homemade mix. I keep one made up most all the time. This recipe makes enough dry mix to fill up a gallon jar—if you only want to make a smaller jar, cut the recipe in half for a half-gallon and divide by fours to make only a quart of mix. Easy!

I use large glass jars that restaurant size pickles or foods come in to store my mix. I wash the jar thoroughly and let it soak in a solution of 1 cup baking soda and hot water overnight. Then wash again. Dry thoroughly. Then I paint the screw lid with spray paint. My favorite color is red for the lids. Next I dip an old toothbrush in white water-based paint. Holding the toothbrush a distance from the lid I run my finger over the brush and a spray of paint will ‘speckle’ the lid with white flecks. This sounds a bit involved but really doesn’t take long. Let the paint dry and you now have a lovely canister to store your mix in that cost you next to nothing. It makes a wonderful gift with a large gingham bow around the jar neck. Don’t forget to give them the recipe on how to make the cup of mocha!
