cinnamon rolls

I have had this recipe for a couple years but I had the ingredients not the instructions so I found this so my children could have directions.  I use cream cheese if your Dad isn't having any and I use real lemon juice not vanilla for me but Shawni likes almond or vanilla flavoring the best.

Ingredients:

Serves: 12Yield:
2
dozen Units: US | Metric
5 -6 cups flour
1 (18 ounce) package yellow cake mix
2 (1/4 ounce) packages fast rise yeast
2 1/2 cups warm water (120 to 130)
1/4 cup melted butter or 1/4 cup margarine, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Frosting
6 tablespoons butter or 6 tablespoons margarine, softened
3 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 -3 tablespoons milk
Directions:

1
In a mixing bowl, combine 4 cups of flour, dry cake mix, yeast and warm water until smooth.
2
Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
3
Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes (I did this step with my Kitchen Aid Mixer).
4
Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top.
5
Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
6
Punch dough down.
7
Divide dough in half and let rest covered 10 minutes.
8
Turn onto a lightly floured surface.
9
Roll each portion into a 14 X 10 rectangle.
10
Brush with butter; sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar (I prefer brown sugar myself, so I used about 3/4 cup brown sugar with a teaspoon and half of cinnamon).
11
Roll up jellyroll style, starting with long side.
12
Cut each roll into 12 slices; place cut side down in two greased 13 X 9 baking pans (At this point I just kind of flatten them a bit with my hand so the middles don't raise up).
13
Cover and let rise until almost doubled, about 20 minutes (this is where I put them in the frig over night).
14
Bake at 400 for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.
15
Cool for 20 minutes.
16
*For frosting, in a mixing bowl, cream butter, powdered sugar and vanilla.
17
Add enough milk to achieve desired consistency.
18
*I prefer a cream cheese frosting on cinnamon rolls so I changed that as well, but this works out just great.

Shawni's Birthday Dinner

Shawni's request is Chicken Enchllades the way Kaki Beaudin makes them.  When I went to get the recipe it was faded so I'm adding it here.
2 cups cooked Chicken (chopped in small pieces)
1 cup white onions
1 pkg. cream cheese (8oz)
12 0z Monterrey Jack Cheese.
1 Small carton whipping cream (do not whip)
12 flour tortillas
black pepper
paprika (optional)

Combine chicken, onion and cream cheese and mix well.  Dip tortillas in whipping cream and then fill each one with chicken mixture.  Roll op tortillas and place in greased casserole dish.  Cover with Monterrey Jack cheese (grated) and bake at 350 degrees for 30 - 40 min.

This is what I used this time and liked it.

6 chicken breasts
2 cups onion
2 pkg.  cream cheese
2 cups pepper jack cheese
12 flour tortillas
black pepper
1 1/2 cans Las Palmas Green Enchilada (medium)  sauce
Combine chicken, onion, cheese and cream cheese mix well.  Dip tortillas in Green Enchllada sauce then fill with chicken mixture.  I did not put cheese on top.  I like it with the cream but I didn't have any so I used the green enchilada sauce.  I liked it this way I may try 1/2 a thing of whipping cream with the enchilada sauce next time.

For Mark I made a small casserole dish with no cream cheese and used corn tortillas.  Instead of rolling the corn shells I did it as a casserole, pour sauce in the bottom, place 4 tortillas on top then pour sauce on top, Place chicken mixture on top then repeat ending with tortillas and green sauce.
