Cover dough and let rest 10 minutes.
Mix brown sugar, cinnamon and butter together (amounts can be increased up to 1½ times given for extra sticky buns).
Gently roll dough into a 12x9 rectangle.
Spread with cinnamon mixture and sprinkle with raisins if desired.
Roll up from long side and pinch to seal the seam.
Cut into 12 equal slices with a sharp knife.
Place cut side up in greased muffin tins.
Place muffin pan on a baking sheet on top of a large shallow pan half filled with boiling water.
Cover dough and let rise for 20 minutes.
