Ingredients:

Rolls
1 package active dry yeast (1/4 ounce size)
1 cup warm milk (105 to 110 F)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup margarine, melted
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
4 cups all-purpose flour

Filling
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons cinnamon
1/3 cup margarine, softened

Icing
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) margarine, softened
1/4 cup (2 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 tablespoon whole milk
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon lemon extract

Instructions:

1. For the rolls, dissolve the yeast in the warm milk in a large bowl.

2. Mix together the sugar, margarine, salt, and eggs. Stir in the milk and yeast solution, then add the flour and mix well.

3. Knead the dough into a large ball, using your hands dusted lightly with flour. Put in a bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place about 1 hour, or until the dough has doubled in size.

4. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough flat until it is approximately 21 inches long and 16 inches wide. It should be about 1/4-inch thick.

5. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

6. For the filling, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Spread the softened margarine evenly over the surface of the dough, and then sprinkle the cinnamon and sugar evenly over the surface.

7. Working carefully from the top (a 21-inch side), roll the dough down to the bottom edge.

8. Cut the rolled dough into 1 3/4-inch slices and place 6 at a time, evenly spaced, in a lightly greased baking pan. Let the rolls rise again until double in size (about 30 minutes). Bake for 10 minutes, or until golden brown on top.

9. While the rolls bake, make the icing by mixing the margarine and cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed. Add the powdered sugar and mix on low speed until the sugar is incorporated, then add the milk and flavorings. Mix on high speed again until the icing is smooth and fluffy.

10. When the rolls come out of the oven, let them cool for about 10 minutes, then coat generously with icing.
