Cake Mix Caramel Rolls - great weekend breakfast!

This is my first time trying caramel rolls made with cake mix...my taste testers agree they turned out pretty good!  




Caramel Rolls with Cake Mix

2 1/2 cups warm water
4 1/2 teaspoons yeast
1 box yellow cake mix
4 1/2 cups flour
3 eggs
1/3 cup oil
dash of salt
brown sugar
cinnamon
whipping cream
butter

Mix the yeast into the warm water.  Set aside and let proof.  In a large bowl ( I used my kitchen aid) mix cake mix,  flour  and salt.  Add 3 eggs, slightly beaten, oil and yeast mixture...mix well.  Let dough rise until doubled.  Roll it out and spread butter on the dough and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.  {Use as much butter, cinnamon and sugar as you like}  Roll up and cut the rolls.  Put brown sugar and cinnamon on the bottom of a large cookie sheet sprayed with Pam.  Lay rolls on top.  When ready to bake pour whipping cream on top.  Bake at 350 degrees until done.  I don't like to put a time for something such as caramel rolls....my family likes the rolls just baked until done but not hard!  I also made a little extra caramel to add in case the rolls didn't have enough.  Just add whipping cream, brown sugar and a dash of salt to a sauce pan and cook until slightly thickened.  Add to the top of your rolls if it looks like you want more caramel!  

I know many of you will think this recipe is not detailed enough.  If you are a long time follower of mine you will know that I have said that recipes are really hard for me as most times I do not follow a recipe...I just add here and there!  If you have any questions...just ask! :)
