Sour Cream Cinnamon Rolls

3 c. sour cream
3/4 c. butter
2/3 c. sugar
1 1/2 t. salt
3 eggs
2 T. Yeast dissolved in 1/2 c. warm water.
9-10 c. flour
Melted Butter
Brown Sugar
Cinnamon

Warm the sour cream. In a large bowl place the butter, sugar and salt. Pour the warm sour cream over the butter. Let it sit till butter is melted. Add the eggs and yeast, stir together. Add the flour. Dough should be sticky. Knead it till it is smooth. Your hands will be covered. I knead it right in the bowl(in fact I do this with all breads). Cover and let rise till doubled, about 1 hour. Roll out on a floured surface into a large rectangle. Pour melted butter on dough. Sprinkle with Brown Sugar, and Cinnamon. Roll up jelly roll style. Cut into rolls and place on a cookie sheet. Let rise for about 30 min. Bake at 375 for 15-20 min. Let cool and frost with your favorite frosting.

You can use milk instead of sour cream for a healthier version. You will have to increase the flour. I prefer sour cream because they are so moist. I have even added some wheat flour and that is good.
