Potato Cinnamon Rolls

Directions:

• In a large bowl combine 1 1/2 cups of the flour and the yeast; set aside.
• In a microwave safe bowl, combine the milk and 1/3 cup butter and microwave until the butter melts.
• To a stand mixer bowl with a paddle, add the milk mixture, potatoes, sugar, and salt.
• Mix briefly to combine.
• Add the eggs and mix again to combine.
• Switch to a dough hook, and add the flour and yeast mixture; mix briefly.
• Add the remaining flour and mix on low until all is blended.
• Switch to a medium speed and mix for about 5 minutes, dough should be moderately soft with a smooth and elastic body.
• Meanwhile, lightly grease a bowl; set aside.
• Shape the dough into a bowl and place in the grease bowl making sure the top of the dough ball is grease too.
• Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 45-60 minutes.
• On a lightly floured surface, turn dough out and form into a rough rectangle.
• Cover again and let dough rest about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grease a 9x13 baking pan and set aside.
• Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon; set aside.
• Roll dough into an 12-18-inch rectangle. Spread the ¼ cup softened butter over the dough.
• Leave a 1-inch border along one of the long sides, sprinkle filling evenly over butter.
• Lightly moisten the bare border with milk or water to help the roll stick together.
• Starting from the long side with the filling, roll-up the rectangle into a spiral.
• With the seam at the bottom, cut the spiral into 12 equal pieces.
• Arrange the pieces cut side down, and seam sides touching in the greased baking pan.
• Cover lightly with a clean kitchen towel and place in your UNHEATED oven.
