Source:  Old Family Recipe

(My Mom - Carmelle Robichaud)

 

DOUGH:

2 cups flour

4 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

1/4 cup shortening

3/4 cup milk (or slightly more, if necessary)

 

SPREAD:

Butter

Cinnamon

Brown Sugar

Crushed Pecans (optional)

 

Mix dough ingredients together as you would a pie crust. Flour your table surface and roll dough to about 1/4 inch thick.  Spread Butter, then cinnamon and brown sugar (& crushed pecans, if you wish). Roll into a log and cut into slices.  Place slices face up in a rectangular cooking dish. Set aside.

 

SAUCE:

3/4 cup molasses

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup brown sugar

butter and salt

 

Cook ingredients in saucepan until thick... approx. the consistency of "Corn Syrop".  Pour over cinnamon rolls - sprinkle a few whole pecans (if desired) and bake in oven, 400 F, for 20 minutes.  Reduce heat to 350 F and cook for another 10 minutes or so.
