90-minute Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients:

3/4 cup milk

1/4 cup butter

3-1/4 cup flour

2-1/4 tsp. instant yeast (or 1 packet)

1/4 cup white sugar

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 cup water

1 egg

1 cup brown sugar, packed

1 T cinnamon

1/2 cup butter, softened

Directions:

1. Heat milk in a small saucepan until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Mix in butter; stir until meted. Let cool until lukewarm.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2-1/4 cup flour, yeast, sugar, and salt; mix well. Add water, egg, and the milk mixture; beat well. Add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition. When the dough has just pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 5 minutes.

3. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, cinnamon, and softened butter.

4. Roll out dough into a 12 x 9 inch rectangle (or until dough is about 1/4 inch thick). Spread dough with butter/sugar mixture. Roll up dough and pinch seam to seal. Cut into 12 equal size rolls and place cut side up in a greased 9x13 pan. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

5. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until browned. Serve warm.

1 (12 oz.) can cooked shredded chicken

1/2 cup jack cheese, shredded

1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

1/2 cup corn kernels

1-2 sliced green onions

2 minced garlic cloves

1/3 cup salsa

1 tsp cumin

1/2 cup plain greek yogurt

2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Make the chicken filling by combining the following ingredients in a bowl: chicken, cheese, corn, green onion, garlic cloves, salsa, cumin, lime juice, salt, and yogurt.

3. Assemble the tortillas by adding about 2 Tbs of the filling along the lower third of each tortilla. Roll up and place seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Brush the tortilla rollups with the garlic oil and sprinkle with salt and chili powder. Bake for 8-10 minutes.

4. While the rollups bake, make the avocado cream. Add one large ripe avocado to a bowl and mash until creamy. Add yogurt, lime juice, salt, and chile powder. Stir well to thoroughly combine. Serve on top of baked rollups.
