2 (1/4 ounce) packages active dry yeast (7 g)
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened (115 g)
2 eggs
2 teaspoons salt (10 g)
6 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (715 g)
FILLING: 1 1/3 cups packed brown sugar (300 g)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (2.5 g)
3 tablespoons cream (45 g)
4 tablespoons of flour (60 g)
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine, softened (30 g)

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar and mashed potatoes. Add water and yeast, and then mix well.
Cover and let it rise in a warm place for one hour.
Meanwhile, combine all filling ingredients (brown sugar, ground cinnamon, cream, flour and butter/margarine). Set aside.
Mix in butter, eggs and salt to the risen dough and gradually add the flour.
Place onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic for 6-8 minutes.
Divide dough into half. On a floured surface, roll each portion into a 12inch by 12 inch square pan.
Divide filling, pour and spread evenly over each square.
Roll up each in a jelly-roll style, and cut into small cylindrical rolls.
Place in a greased 9 by 9inch baking pan. Cover and let the rolls rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 35-40 minutes or until golden.
Serve warm.
