Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

-
♥ More Pumpkin Goodness ♥


Found these super soft, delicious, cinnamony, all around perfectly delicious rolls in a Taste of Home magazine from a while ago. They are definitely worth the effort and they don't last long around here!

They are also simple to make so that's a bonus too.☺

2¾ - 3¼ cups all purpose flour, divided
¼ ounce active dry yeast (I used instant yeast)
½ cup solid pack pumpkin
2/3 cup milk
2 Tablespoons sugar
4 Tablespoons butter, divided
½ teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
½ cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Caramel Frosting:
2 Tablespoons butter
¼ cup packed brown sugar
1 Tablespoon milk
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Dash Salt
¼ - 1/3 cup confectioner's sugar

In a bowl, combine 1½ cups flour and yeast; set aside.

In a saucepan, heat and stir pumpkin, milk, sugar, 2 Tablespoons butter, and salt until warm (120 - 130 degrees) and butter is almost melted.

Add to flour/yeast mixture along with egg. Beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes.

Stir in enough remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough. Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 6 - 8 minutes.

Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Roll into a 12 x 10 inch rectangle.

Melt remaining butter; brush on dough.

Combine brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over dough.

Roll dough, jelly roll style, starting with the longer side.

Cut into 12 slices (1 inch each).

Place rolls, cut side down, in a greased 9 x 13 baking pan.

Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.

Bake @ 375 for 20 - 25 minutes or until golden brown.

Cool on a wire rack.

For the frosting:
Melt the butter in a saucepan; stir in brown sugar and milk.

Cook and stir over medium - low heat for 1 minute.

Stir in vanilla, salt and ¼ cup powdered sugar; beat until well blended. Add more sugar, if necessary, to achieve desired consistency.

Drizzle over rolls.



Enjoy and Be Blessed!

Creamy Finger Jello

-
Image
I was asked to bring finger Jello to serve with a hot lunch us room Mom's were serving to Serena's classroom at school. Jello isn't something I typically serve,but I have about 2 or 3 recipes using Jello that I make about once in a blue moon. One reason I make this one is because it isn't a typical, plain finger Jello. But also because it looks like a two step process when it really isn't. Everything is mixed as one and it separates as it sets. And the cream adds a good flavor. 2 large boxes Jello 4 packages plain gelatin 4½ cups boiling water ¼ cup cold water 1 cup heavy cream Combine the Jello and gelatin and whisk together. Add the boiling water and whisk until Jello is dissolved. Add the remaining ingredients and stir. Pour into a lightly greased (this helps to remove from the pan in a cleaner cut, spray the pan then wipe it down with a paper towel) glass 9 X 13 pan. Cover and chill till firm. Cut into desired shapes or squares and serve.

Seasoned Pretzels

-

These pretzels have been around the block and back again, but they  really are  such an easy snack and they go well as an appetizer too. They are simple and require no baking which in my opinion is a definite plus! 18 ounces pretzel twists ½ cup olive oil 1 envelope original Hidden Valley Ranch Mix 1 teaspoon dill weed ½ teaspoon garlic powder Pour pretzels into a large bowl. In a smaller bowl combine oil and seasonings and mix well with a whisk. Pour over pretzels and toss to coat. Allow to rest at room temperature, stirring every now and then to coat again, until oil and seasonings are gone from the bottom over the bowl. Pretzels are ready to serve when they look dry again. Be Blessed!

Rice Krispy Rollups

Image
Here is another chocolate and peanut butter concoction that is totally irresistible and so easy to make. I sometimes make these instead of cookies if  I'm not in the baking mood. The only trouble is they never last long. Here's what you'll need: ¼ cup butter, melted 10½ ounces mini marshmallows 5½ cups Rice Krispies 1½ cups milk chocolate chips ½ cup peanut butter Melt butter in a 6 quart kettle, add marshmallows. Melt completely over low heat. Add the Rice Krispies. Mix well. Spread evenly into a greased 10½ x 15½ baking sheet. In a microwave safe bowl combine chocolate chips and peanut butter.  Melt at 1 minute intervals until completely melted, stirring after each minute. Spread on top of Rice Krispy mixture. Let set in a cool place till chocolate mixture sets up. Be careful not to let the chocolate get too hard, it will not make a neat roll if you do. Loosen all around with a metal spatula. Roll, starting on
