1/2 cup warm water (105 to 115 degrees)
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
4-5 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk, scalded and cooled to 110 degrees
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs, room temperature

1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla|For dough, dissolve yeast in water with 1/2 teaspoon sugar. Let
stand 5 minutes. In mixing bowl, combine 3 cups flour, 1/3 cup
sugar and salt. At low speed, gradually beat in milk, oil, eggs,
and yeast mixture; beat until well blended. Beat in additional
flour until dough pulls away from sides of bowl.
On floured surface, knead dough until smooth and elastic,
8-10 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover
and let rise in warm, draft-free area until doubled in bulk,
about 1 hour.
For filling, beat all ingredients together until smooth.
Set aside. Grease 2 (9-inch) round cake pans. On lightly floured
surface, roll dough into an 18 X 10 inch rectangle. Spread with
filling. Roll tightly from long side. Cut into 14 (1 1/4-inch)
slices. Place 1 roll cut side up in center of each pan. Arrange remaining rolls in a circle of 6 around center roll. Cover and
let rise until doubled in bulk, 30 to 40 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, until golden
brown. Cool in pans 10 minutes. Invert onto wire racks, then invert
again to cool. For icing, whisk all ingredients until smooth.
Drizzle over cooled rolls.
