How To Make raspberry cream cheese rolls
-
Step 1DOUGH... In the bowl of a stand mixer, add yeast, lukewarm milk, and 2 Tbsp powdered sugar. Stir and let it proof for 7 to 10 minutes or until foamy and bubbly.
-
Step 2Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine flour, lemon zest, and salt; whisk and set aside.
-
Step 3Add beaten eggs, melted butter, and remaining powdered sugar to the yeast mixture. Using the paddle attachment, process on speed 3 until blended.
-
Step 4Switch the attachment for the dough hook and add dry ingredients.
-
Step 5On low speed, mix until just combined before increasing back to speed 3. Process until the dough clings around the hook, adding 1 tablespoon flour at a time to a maximum of 3.
-
Step 6Increase speed to 4 and knead for 4 minutes – dough will still be sticky.
-
Step 7Grease a large bowl with grapeseed oil and set aside.
-
Step 8Form a ball by pulling the dough under and transfer it to the prepared, greased bowl, swirling it around to coat with oil.
-
Step 9Cover with a clean dish towel and transfer to a draft-free area. Let it rise for 2 hours or until it doubles in size.
-
Step 10Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray; set aside.
-
Step 11After 2 hours, punch the dough to knock the air out and place it on a lightly floured work surface.
-
Step 12Form a ball by pulling under before rolling dough into a 12 by 18-inch rectangle (use a ruler if needed).
-
Step 13Spread the filling out evenly onto the dough, leaving about 1 1/2 to 2 inches from the edges.
-
Step 14Roll the longer side of the dough tightly to the other side; cut the ends to make it even.
-
Step 15Using a bench scraper, cut the dough into 12 even pieces, about 1 1/2 inches thick.
-
Step 16Transfer them to the prepared baking dish and cover with a towel. Let it proof for 45 minutes.
-
Step 17Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Step 18When proofing time is done, transfer the dish to the preheated oven and bake for 33 to 35 minutes or until golden brown. If halfway through baking, the top gets brown too fast, cover loosely with foil.
-
Step 19Remove from the heat and allow to cool on a wire rack while making the icing.
-
Step 20FILLING... In a small bowl, combine sugar and corn starch.
-
Step 21In another bowl, add frozen raspberries and the corn starch mixture; toss to coat.
-
Step 22CREAM CHEESE ICING... In the bowl of a stand mixer, add cream cheese. Using the paddle attachment, beat the cheese until smooth and creamy.
-
Step 23Add sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Reduce the speed to low and process until blended, about 20 seconds, cleaning the sides and bottom of the bowl. Increase speed to high and beat for 1 minute.
-
Step 24Spread icing over warm rolls and serve immediately. To store leftovers, cover with foil and transfer to the fridge for up to 5 days.
