---- ULTRA LIGHT PASTRY DOUGH ----
In a large bowl, mix the yeast & milk. Stir gently for about a
minute. The yeast will not completely dissolve in milk. That's
normal.
Mix in the sugar, pastry flour & egg whites; stirring for 100
strokes. Let rise for 30 minutes. Mix in the salt & remaining
flour. Stir until well mixed. (The dough will start pulling away
from the sides of the bowl.) With a little additional flour
sprinkled on the dough, knead for 5 minutes.
Let rise for 40 minutes.
The dough is now ready to be used. (Don't try this recipe in a
Bread Machine!! It doesn't work!!)

---- WICKED CINNAMON ROLLS ----
Preheat oven to 375'.
Make the Ultralight Pastry Dough
through the second rise.
Sprinkle flour onto a work surface. Place the dough on top.
Sprinkle enough flour on the dough to keep it from sticking to
your rolling pin. Roll the dough flat, into a rectangular shape
about 1/4 inch thick.
Let rest while thoroughly mixing the brown sugar & cinnamon.
Sprinkle the sugar mixture evenly over the pastry dough leaving a
1 inch edge along the long side away from you. Gently roll dough
into a log from the long side near you, to the long side with no
sugar mixture. Slice into sections 2 inches thick. Place on a
non-stick rimmed cookie sheet. (The more brown sugar you use the
more it oozes out the bottom of the rolls.)
Whisk together the egg white & skim milk. Brush the rolls with
the milk mixture.
Let rise in a warm draft free place for 20 minutes.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until the tops of the rolls are light
golden brown.
Remove immediately from the pan. Ice heavily.
You can also freeze the rolls before baking. Place the unbaked
rolls in a foil lasagne pan, let rise 20 minutes, cover tightly
with foil lid, place in freezer. They can then be baked straight
from the freezer. When ready to bake, remove lid & bake in a
preheated 375°F. oven for 25 minutes.

-THE FROSTING THAT MOVES LIKE A SLOTH-
Pour sugar into a small bowl. Heat milk slightly in the
microwave. Mix the milk into the sugar, stirring until smooth.
Add the vanilla; stir until well blended. Spoon onto cinnamon
rolls or muffins. The whole batch of frosting is fat free.

Variation:
Cold lemon juice can be used in place of the milk for a more
tangy frosting.
