If you want carmel rolls, use a cast iron frying pan or cake pan with brown sugar and heavy sour cream. ( On the bottom of pan press brown sugar evenly and add enough cream until it is creamy.) Place sliced rolls on top of carmel mixture and bake. When baking is finished, just flip out on a board or foil. |

Notes: Hard recipe to make as you have to watch how you scald the milk. Be careful so as not burn the milk. The other trick is when adding yeast the milk/sugar mixture has to be cool but not cold.
