Ingredients

3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup margarine, softened
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup white sugar
1 (1/4 ounce) package instant yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup water
1 large egg
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup margarine, softened
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup raisins

Directions

1 Heat milk in a small saucepan until just hot to touch or a few bubbles form around the edge. Remove from heat and stir in margarine until melted; set aside.
2 Combine 2 1/4 cups flour, white sugar, yeast, and salt in a large bowl. Add milk mixture, water, and egg; beat well. Add remaining 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition.
3 Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 5 minutes. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 10 minutes.
4 While dough is resting, mix together brown sugar, margarine, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Set aside.
5 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin pan.
6 Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface into a 12x9-inch rectangle. Spread brown sugar mixture over dough; sprinkle with raisins.
7 Roll up dough and pinch seam to seal. Cut into 12 equal rolls.
8 Place cut-side up in the prepared muffin cups. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
9 Bake in the preheated oven until browned, about 20 minutes. Remove rolls from muffin cups to cool on a wire rack. Serve warm.
