½ cup butter
2 cups sugar
2 cups water
1½ cups self-rising flour
½ cup shortening
⅓ cup milk
1 teasp cinnamon
2 cups peaches, finely chopped
Directions:
Melt butter in 13X9 inch baking dish while pre-heating the oven to 325 degrees.
Heat sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved.
Cut shortening into flour with a pastry cutter until mixture resembles cornmeal. Add milk and stir with fork until the dough leaves the side of the bowl. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface or a pastry cloth and knead only until smooth.
Roll dough out with a rolling pin to form a large rectangle about 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle cinnamon over the peaches and spread that mixture evenly over the dough.
Roll dough up like a jelly roll and dampen edges of dough to seal. Cut into 16 slices and place slices on cut edge in pan of melted butter.
Carefully pour sugar syrup around rolls. Bake at 325 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour or until most of the juice has been absorbed.
A little extra work but definitely a favorite!
