Recipe - Cinnamon Rolls With Raisins

1 Recipe dough from "Buttery
Dinner Rolls"

FILLING
3 tablespoon Butter or margarine, melted
1/3 cup Sugar
2 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon Grated lemon peel
One half cup Raisins

GLAZE
One half cup Confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon Lemon juice (up to 2)

Make same dough as Buttery Dinner Rolls, through first rise.

On a lightly floured surface, roll and spread the dough to a 12 inch by 15
inch rectangle. Brush with melted butter. Combine the sugar, cinnamon and
lemon peel; sprinkle evenly over the butter. Sprinkle with raisins.

Starting from a long side, roll up the dough tightly. Pinch the long edge
of the dough into the roll. Slice into 9 rolls. Place in a greased 9 by
9inch baking pan, cut side up. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45
minutes.

Bake at 350 F for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 10
minutes. Combine 1 Tbsp lemon juice with the confectioner's sugar, adding
only enough additional lemon juice to make a very thick glaze. Drop and
spread with a teaspoon over the rolls.

Note: I'm thinking about trying orange peel and juice instead of lemon, but
haven't done so yet.
