This recipe makes four loaves of bread, and I was going to give away two of the loaves, but once I tasted it, I could only bring myself to give away one loaf. It is so soft and tender and the addition of mashed potatoes and orange juice to the bread dough makes it so moist. My mouth is watering for a piece just writing about it. My entire family loves this stuff! And the one loaf that I did give away to my neighbor, she loved and said that they pretty much ate the entire loaf in one day. You really must try this bread! Thanks Aaron for giving me this recipe and for letting me share it with everyone!

Roll each half into 15" x 7" rectangle (1/2 inch thick)
Spread butter, sugar and cinnamon on each half

Roll and seal edge (make sure you seal the ends and the edges of the loaves)
Place in bread pans
Cover and let rise until double (1 hour)
Bake at 350 for 35 minutes (cover with tin foil the last 15 min)
