How do you make home made cinnamon rolls?

I just wanted a recipe for home made cinamon rolls. Used to make them all the time when I was younger and really enjoyed it. I lost the recipe a while back and would like to have it again.

Moist Cinnamon Rolls
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup warm milk
1 egg
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 1/3 cups bread flour
1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast

1/3 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 cup chopped walnuts

1/4 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup raisins
DIRECTIONS:
Place milk, egg, butter, sugar, salt, flour and yeast in bread machine pan. Make sure you add yeast last. Set bread machine on Dough cycle and begin.
In a medium sauce pan, melt 1/3 cup butter over medium-low heat. Stir in 1/2 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons milk and 1 cup walnuts. Stir constantly until well blended. Pour this sauce in a 9×13 inch pan; set aside.
After the cycle is complete, put the dough on a lightly floured board, and roll the dough into a rectangle about 10×15. Brush the dough with melted butter and sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon, nuts and raisins.
Roll the dough up tightly like a jelly roll, starting with the long side. Press the edges to seal. With a knife, or preferably a long piece of dental floss, cut the roll into one inch pieces. Place the pieces in the prepared pan on top of the caramel sauce.
Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until double in size, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until brown. Remove from oven and immediately turn upside down onto a platter.

INGREDIENTS:
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup butter
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
4 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans, divided
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup melted butter
In a small bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon sugar and yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes. Warm the milk in a small saucepan until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Mix in 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup butter and salt; stir until melted. Let cool until lukewarm.
In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture, milk mixture, eggs and 1 1/2 cup flour; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
While dough is rising, melt 3/4 cup butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in 3/4 cup brown sugar, whisking until smooth. Pour into greased 9×13 inch baking pan. Sprinkle bottom of pan with 1/2 cup pecans; set aside. Melt remaining butter; set aside. Combine remaining 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup pecans, and cinnamon; set aside.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, roll into an 18×14 inch rectangle. Brush with 2 tablespoons melted butter, leaving 1/2 inch border uncovered; sprinkle with brown sugar cinnamon mixture. Starting at long side, tightly roll up, pinching seam to seal. Brush with remaining 2 tablespoons butter. With serrated knife, cut into 15 pieces; place cut side down, in prepared pan. Cover and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in volume. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool in pan for 3 minutes, then invert onto serving platter. Scrape remaining filling from the pan onto the rolls.

    The way we did it growing up was this… Put some cinnamon and sugar into a zip lock bag. Take a can of biscuits, stretch em out, spiral them, whatever, throw them in the bag and shake until coated. Follow baking instructions on the buscuit can.

  3. QUICK HOMEMADE CINNAMON ROLLS

    1 pkg. frozen rolls (in ball)
    1/2 c. brown sugar
    1 c. sugar
    2 1/2 tbsp. cinnamon
    Chopped pecans
    1 1/2 sticks butter
    1/2 pt. whipping cream

    Mix sugar and cinnamon. Melt 1 1/2 sticks butter. Dip each frozen roll into the butter and then roll in the mixture. Stack in pan (angel food cake pan is all right, but not quite big enough); sprinkle pecans over and allow to rise overnight with towel over top.
    Before putting into oven, mix all remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture with 1/2 pint whipping cream and pour over rolls (do not whip cream). Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes. Turn out upside down.

  4. 1 loaf frozen white bread dough, thawed in refrigerator
    Flour, for dusting surface
    Filling:
    1 cup packed brown sugar
    1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
    2/3 stick butter, softened

    Icing:
    1 stick unsalted butter, softened
    1 cup powdered sugar
    1/3 cup cream cheese
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
    Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to form a 15 by 7-inch rectangle. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside. Spread 2/3 cup softened butter over dough and then evenly sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar mixture. Starting at the long edge, roll up dough as for a jelly roll. Cut roll into 16 slices and then set aside in a warm place and allow dough to rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

    Divide rolls among 2 lightly buttered round baking pans. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden on top. While the rolls are baking, combine the icing ingredients with an electric mixer until fluffy. Frost the warm rolls with the icing. Serve warm.
