Really Yummy Cinnamon Rolls

1 C milk
1/2 C butter
1/2 C sugar
3 eggs (beat really well...that's the trick)
2 tsp salt
2 T yeast
1 C water
1 tsp sugar
About 6 1/2 C flour
Melt butter in milk over low heat and cool.
Dissolve yeast in warm water with the 1 tsp sugar. Beat eggs in a large bowl until foamy. Add sugar and salt. Next, add milk mixture. Add yeast mixture. Stir in flour. Dough will be a little sticky. Let rise about 1 hour. Roll out on floured surface. Cut into rolls, crescents, or cinnamon rolls. Let rise until doubled in size. Bake at 400 degrees until golden brown (about 8-10 min). Frost when slightly warm.

Tips: After the dough is rolled out butter the dough and sprinkle a cinnamon sugar mixture over rolls. I usually do about 1 C of brown sugar and 4 tsp cinnamon.

Frosting:
3 C powdered sugar
1/3 C butter softened
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
2-4 Tbsp milk (enough until it's as thick or thin as you like it)
Mix all ingredients together.
