(from Lindsay Sparti)


1 tsp. sugar
2 pkg yeast
1/4 c warm water
6 c flour (watch it!)
1 1/2 c marjarine
1/2 tsp salt
4 egg yolks
1/2 c sugar
1 c powdered milk (make with warm water)

Filling
4 8 oz. cream cheese
4 egg yolks
dash of salt
1 whole egg
1/2 c sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon

*Mix yeast with warm water and 1 tsp. sugar.  Let it foam up. Mix flour, salt, and cut in marjarine.  Beat egg yolks, sugar, and warm milk.  Add this and yeast mixture to flour. Knead 5 min. Divide dough into 5 pieces.  Roll each one out thin, like a pizza. Cut rolled dough into 12 wedges. Put 1 tsp. filling on each wedge and roll up.  Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet, tip of wedge up.  Bake @ 350 for 20-25 min. Frost with glaze while warm.

*Filling- Mix cheese, eggs (yolks and whole egg), sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Mix with fork, don't whip/beat. Set aside until rolls are cut.

*Glaze- 1 c powdered sugar, 1 tsp. vanilla and milk to consistency.
