Cinnamon Rolls

Baked cinnamon rolls for breakfast last Sunday.

Dough was made the day before and filled, rolled and cut 

and left overnight in the fridge to rise.

Taken out of the fridge an hour before baking.

Just out of the oven.

Topped with cream cheese frosting.

I have adapted the recipe 

and used the autolyze, stretch and fold method for the dough.

 Roll up jelly roll style. Seal well. 

Cut into 1 1/2 to 2" slices.  (I use floss to cut)  Place in buttered baking dish, 

leaving room between each piece.  Cover.
