ANOTHER CINNABON-TYPE CINNAMON BUN

Steps:

• Using the bread machine instructions, heat the milk to whatever temperature your machine suggests for the dough cycle. Place the dough ingredients into the machine in the order recommended and mix, knead and rise with the dough cycle.
• Butter a 9" X 13" X 2" pan thoroughly.
• Once the dough cycle ends, remove the dough from the machine and punch it down on a buttered countertop. Roll out to a large rectangle, about 30" X 15".
• Warm the butter for the filling to room temperature and spread over the dough evenly. Sprinkle with the brown sugar and the cinnamon, then starting on a long side, roll the dough tightly into a cylinder.
• Slice the dough into 24 equal slices and place each one cut side down in the prepared pan.
• Let rise in a warm place, covered, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350º.
• Bake the buns for about 22-26 minutes or until browned all over but not too dark.
• While the buns are baking prepare the frosting by combining all ingredients at room temperature and beating very well for 2 or 3 minutes with an electric mixer.
• Frost the buns in the pan as soon as you remove the pan from the oven. The frosting will melt somewhat into the spaces in between the buns. Cool in the pan and enjoy!

• In a small bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon sugar and yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes. Warm the milk in a small saucepan until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Mix in 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup butter and salt; stir until melted. Let cool until lukewarm.
• In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture, milk mixture, eggs and 1 1/2 cup flour; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
• Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• While dough is rising, melt 3/4 cup butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in 3/4 cup brown sugar, whisking until smooth. Pour into greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Sprinkle bottom of pan with 1/2 cup pecans; set aside. Melt remaining butter; set aside. Combine remaining 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup pecans, and cinnamon; set aside.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, roll into an 18x14 inch rectangle. Brush with 2 tablespoons melted butter, leaving 1/2 inch border uncovered; sprinkle with brown sugar cinnamon mixture. Starting at long side, tightly roll up, pinching seam to seal. Brush with remaining 2 tablespoons butter. With serrated knife, cut into 15 pieces; place cut side down, in prepared pan. Cover and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in volume. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
