Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups boiling water
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 2 (1/4 oz) packages fast rising yeast
  • 12 -15 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup corn syrup
  • 1/2 cup cream
  • 2 cups brown sugar

Directions:

  1. Stir 3/4 c sugar, oil and salt into the boiling water.
  2. When the mixture has cooled, stir in the eggs and 1 c flour.
  3. Stir the warm water, 1 teaspoons sugar and the yeast together.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oil mixture with the yeast mixture.
  5. Add the remaining flour, working it in one cup at a time, mixing the dough until it is soft, and no longer sticky.
  6. Knead the dough, place in a large oiled bowl,covered, then let rise until at doubled in bulk.
  7. Punch down, cover and let rise again.
  8. When I get to this step, I cut enough dough out to make 9 dinner rolls, then set them in an 8x8 oiled pan to rise.
  9. On a floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle, about 1 1/2 thick.
  10. With a rubber spatula, spread the 1/2 cup softened margarine over the dough.
  11. Sprinkle with the brown sugar and cinnamon.
  12. You may adjust the sugar and cinnamon amounts according to your taste.
  13. In a bowl, stir the 1/2 cup melted margarine, corn syrup, cream and brown sugar together.
  14. Pour into well oiled pans, I like to use cake pans.
  15. Roll the dough up tightly, sealing the seam by pinching the dough together.
  16. With a sharp knife, slice the dough into 2 slices.
  17. Place the slices into the pans, then let rise until doubled.
  18. Bake at 350 for 20 min's.
  19. Let the buns sit in the toffee sauce for 5 min's, then invert pans onto cookie sheets.
  20. Enjoy while warm, these will stay soft for several days.
  21. Note: I would not advise using a citrus based filling as it will change the flavour and texture of the dough and sauce.
