1
Set aside 1 cup all-purpose flour from total amount. Mix remaining flour, yeast, sugar and salt in large bowl.

2
Heat milk, water, and 1/4 cup margarine until hot to the touch, 125F-130F. Stir hot liquid into dry ingredients. Mix in egg. Mix in enough reserved flour to make a soft dough, so that it does not stick to the bowl. Turn out onto floured board and knead 5 minutes. Cover dough and let rest 10 minutes.

3
Mix brown sugar, cinnamon, and margarine together. Roll dough into 12 x 9-inch rectangle. Spread with cinnamon mixture. Sprinkle with raisins if using. Roll from long side, jelly-roll style; pinch to seal the seam.

Cut into 12 equal slices with a sharp knife. Place cut side up into large greased muffin cups; place on baking sheet over a shallow pan half-filled with boiling water. Cover dough and let rise 20 mins. (works well as regular cinnamon rolls when put on cookie sheet - LB)

5
Bake at 375 F for 20 mins or until browned. Remove from muffin cups to cool. Serve warm.

Powdered Sugar Glaze: in a small bowl, combine 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted; 1 to 2 tablespoons milk and 1 tablespoon melted butter or margarine. Stir until smooth. (I don't sift the powdered sugar and I often add cinnamon - LB)
