3/4 Cup Granulated Sugar Mixed with 3 TBS. Cinnamon (set aside)

1 Packet Yeast
1/2 Tsp Sugar
1/2 Cup Warm Water
Stir all together & set aside

1 Pint fresh washed Blueberries





In a deep bowl mix all of the following together:
1/3 Cup Granulated Sugar
1/2 Cup Warm Milk
1/3 Cup Melted Butter
1 Egg Beaten
The Yeast Mixture
1 Tsp Salt
2 Tsp Vanilla
Now stir in 2 Cups flour, mix well & add 2 more Cups flour. as you mix turn it out on a floured surface & knead for 8 minutes or until you have a smooth elastic dough. Put dough back in the deep bowl, cover & let rise until doubled. Once doubled, turn out on floured surface & roll out into a 10 by 16 inch rectangle. Cover with 1/4 cup melted butter. Now cover that with the cinnamon sugar mixture, spreading it out evenly. Now sprinkle a pint of fresh blueberries over the cinnamon & sugar mixture. Roll dough up into a slightly tight cylinder, Cut into 6 buns. In a 10 x 15 inch pan spread out 4 TBS melted butter, sprinkle a 1/4 cup granulated sugar over the butter. Lay each cinnamon bun cut side down into the prepared pan. Pop any blueberries that tried to escape back into their bun. Cover & let rise until almost doubled. Now bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 to 30 minutes, you want them lightly browned & check dough you do not want wet dough. Once baked remove from oven & mix up your icing! Makes 6 LARGE Cinnamon Buns!

CREAM CHEESE ICING:
4 OZ Cream Cheese Softened
4 OZ Butter Softened
2 TSP Vanilla
2 Cups Powdered Sugar
Dash of Salt
Beat the butter & cream cheese, add vanilla & salt beat again. Slowly beat in sugar. Add a little Milk if needed, Frost warm Blueberry Cinnamon Buns & serve Warm or Room Temperature. You may use all butter or all cream cheese but I love the combo of both!
