    In large bowl, stir cake mix and 2 cups of the flour. Add yeast mixture; stir with wooden spoon until dough forms.

    Gently punch down dough, and then reshape into ball. On lightly floured surface, flatten dough with hands or rolling pin into 18x12-inch rectangle. Brush with melted butter; sprinkle with cinnamon, brown sugar and sprinkles. Roll rectangle up tightly, beginning at 18-inch side. Pinch edge of dough into roll to seal. Cut into 12 rolls.
