Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1/4 cup frozen shortening, cut into small pieces; 1/4 cup cold butter, cut into small cubes; 2 1/2 cups self-rising flour; 1 cup buttermilk; Wax paper; 6 tablespoons butter, softened; 1/4 cup granulated sugar; 1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar; 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon; Vegetable cooking spray

Servings: persons

1
Preheat oven to 450u00b0. Cut shortening and butter into flour with a pastry blender or fork in a medium bowl until crumbly and mixture resembles small peas. Freeze 10 minutes.
2
Make a well in center of flour mixture; add buttermilk, and stir with a fork just until dough comes together.
3
Turn dough out onto a heavily floured surface, and knead 8 to 10 times. Transfer dough to a heavily floured piece of wax paper about 18 inches long. Roll dough into a 14- x 10-inch rectangle.
4
Spread dough with softened butter, leaving a 1/2-inch border. (Make sure butter is very soft, and spread it gently.) Stir together sugars and cinnamon; sprinkle over butter. Lift and tilt wax paper, and roll up dough, jelly-roll fashion, starting at 1 long side and using wax paper as a guide. Cut dough into 14 to 16 (1-inch-thick) slices. Place rolls in a lightly greased (with cooking spray) 9-inch round pan.
5
Bake at 450u00b0 for 13 to 15 minutes or until rolls are golden brown. Cool in pan on a wire rack 5 minutes.
6
Meanwhile, prepare Creamy Glaze, and drizzle over rolls.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
