Kahlua Cinnamon Rolls - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Rolls
    1 (1/4 ounce) package dry yeast
    1/4 cup warm water
    1/2 cup milk
    1/3 cup sugar
    1/4 cup shortening
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    2 3/4 cups flour
    1 egg, beaten
    Filling
    2/3 cup packed brown sugar
    1/2 cup chopped raisins
    4 1/2 tablespoons butter
    1 1/4 tablespoons cinnamon
    1 1/4 tablespoons Kahlua
    Glaze
    1/3 cup packed brown sugar
    1/4 cup Kahlua
    1/4 cup butter
    1 1/8 tablespoons light corn syrup
Preparation
    Put water in a bowl. Mix in yeast and let stand until softened.
    In a large saucepan bring the milk to a boil. Add sugar, shortening and salt. Remove from heat.
    Stir in 1 cup of flour. Add the egg, yeast mixture, and the rest of the flour. Mix to form a stiff dough.
    Knead dough on a lightly floured surface for about 6 minutes. Form into a ball. Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.
    Make the filling by combining the 2/3 cup brown sugar, raisins, 4 1/2 T butter, cinnamon, and 1 1/4 T Kahlua. Mix well.
    Make the glaze by combining the 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup Kahlua, 1/4 cup butter, and corn syrup in a saucepan. Simmer until well blended, stirring constantly.
    When dough has risen, roll into a 12x15 inch rectangle on a floured surface.
    Spread with filling. Roll from the long edge. Cut into 12 slices.
    Reserve 1/3 cup of the glaze. Pour remaining glaze into a 9-inch round baking pan. Arrange rolls, cut side down, in the pan. Let stand for 25 minutes until nearly doubled in size.
    Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Remove and let stand for 5 minutes. Invert pan onto a serving place. Drizzle with reserved glaze.
