Cinnamon Rolls and More

  I want to share the best bread recipe I’ve ever used.  This recipe makes 101 items. I make this recipe about once a month. It gives us enough dinner rolls for the month, and I freeze cinnamon rolls in four packs for for Sunday breakfast or when company stops by. This recipe will even make donuts. The entire recipe costs about $9.00 to make, but one four pack of cinnamon rolls at Wal-Mart are over $2.00 and they taste like they are made with Bisquick..
