Steps:

• For the dough: Sprinkle the active dry yeast over 1 1/4 cups warm water. Allow it to sit until it becomes creamy and starts to bubble, about 2 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the flour, granulated sugar, salt and anise. Stir together with a rubber spatula. Whisk together the melted butter, heavy cream, vanilla and egg yolks in a separate bowl. Add the wet ingredients and the active yeast to the dry ingredients. Using a rubber spatula, stir together to form a rough dough. Place the bowl on the mixer with a dough hook and knead until the dough pulls away from the sides but is still soft and silky, about 10 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside to double in size, about 1 hour.
• For the filling: Mix together the brown sugar, orange zest, lemon zest, anise, cinnamon and salt in a bowl. Dust the counter lightly with flour. Pour the dough out onto the counter and dust the top of the dough with more flour. Gently, roll the dough into a rectangle about 22 by 15 inches and a 1/3 inch thick. Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/4-inch border around the edge. Sprinkle evenly with the brown sugar mixture. Starting at the end closest to you, begin rolling the dough away from you. Moisten the far edge with a little water and seal. You should have a log that looks like a pinwheel on the sides. Cut the log into twelve 2-inch rolls.
• Butter the inside of a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. Place the rolls in the pan and allow to double in size, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Steps:

• Prepare the dough by sprinkling the yeast onto 1/4 cup of warm water; set aside to soften for 5 minutes. Stir the potato flakes, milk, 1/2 cup water, white sugar, and salt together in a saucepan over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture reaches 110 degrees F (63 degrees C). Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl until smooth, then whisk in the warm milk mixture and yeast. Stir in the flour and margarine until a dough forms. Turn out onto a floured work surface, and knead until smooth and satiny, 10 to 20 minutes.
• Place the dough into a greased bowl, and turn over to grease both sides of the dough. Cover, and set in a warm spot to rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch dough down, and knead again briefly to push out the air. Cover, and let rest 10 minutes. Meanwhile, stir 1/3 cup softened butter with the brown sugar and ground cinnamon until blended. Feel free to make extra if you like more filling in your cinnamon rolls.
• Once the dough has rested, turn onto a floured surface and divide in two. Stretch and roll one half into a 10x14-inch rectangle. Spread half of the cinnamon filling onto the dough, and sprinkle with half of the raisins. Roll up the dough from the narrow end, and pinch the edges together to seal. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling. Grease two baking sheets, and cut each roll into 12 pieces. Arrange the cinnamon rolls onto the prepared baking sheets. Cover, and let rise in a warm place until nearly doubled, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
