X 20-inch rectange, 1/4 inch thick. Brush with 2 tablespoons melted butter.
Combine 1 cup brown sugar and 1 ts cinnamon. Sprinkle half of mixture over
dough. Fold long sides to center; press down firmly. Fold in half
lengthwise, making four layers. Press firmly to seal. Roll out to a 26 X
12-inch rectangle. Brush with 2 tablespoons additional melted butter.
Combine almonds, raisins, and remaining brown sugar ~cinnamon mixture.
Sprinkle over dough. Roll as for jelly roll, starting with 26-inch edge.
Cut into 1-inch slices. Dip one cut side of each roll in flour and place
floured-side up on board which has been sprinkled with sugar. Roll out to
1/4-inch thickness. Place on well-greased baking sheets, sugar-side up.

(375 degrees F.) 15 to 18 minutes until golden brown.

**While first pans of rolls are baking, place extra rolls on waxed paper,
sugar -side up, to let rise. Transfer to baking sheet to bake. If
necessary, rolls may rise longer than 15 minutes.
