Add salt to flour and gradually add to yeast to make soft dough. Knead 5 minutes on lightly floured surface. Roll into rectangular shape about 1/4 inch. thick. Brush dough with melted butter. Combine cinnamon and 1 cup of sugar, sprinkle over dough and rol it up, cut 1 inch. slices with string or knife( dental floss works really well ). Place on two greased rectangular pans.
