Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1 3/4 | cups milk |
| 1 | tsp salt |
| 1 | tbsp honey |
| 1 | packet active dry yeast |
| 3/4 | cup granulated sugar |
| 4 – 4 1/2 | cups all-purpose flour |
| 1 | large egg |
| 8 | tbsp unsalted butter |
| 2/3 | cup strawberry preserves |
| 1/2 | tsp ground cinnamon |
| 4 | tbsp cream cheese |
| 1 3/4 | cups powdered sugar |
| 1 – 2 | tbsp milk |
| 1/2 | tsp almond extract |
| 1/2 | cup chopped pecans |
Instructions:
-
In a medium saucepan, combine 1 3/4 cups of milk, salt, honey, and heat over medium heat until warm (118°F. to 120°F.). Transfer the mixture to a large bowl.
-
Stir in the packet of active dry yeast and 2 cups of all-purpose flour. Cover and let it stand for 10 minutes until it becomes foamy.
-
Add the egg and 2 cups of flour to the mixture, stirring well. If the dough is very sticky, gradually add additional 1/2 cup flour until it reaches a smooth consistency.
-
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 6 to 8 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
-
Cover the dough and let it stand for 30 to 40 minutes or until it has doubled in size.
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and spray a 15×11-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
-
Punch the dough down to deflate it, then turn it out onto a floured surface and divide it in half. Cover each half and let it stand for 10 minutes.
-
Roll out one half of the dough into a 15×10-inch rectangle.
-
Spread 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border.
-
Spread 1/3 cup of strawberry preserves evenly over the buttered dough.
-
In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the strawberry preserves.
-
Starting at the long edge, tightly roll up the dough and pinch the edges to seal.
-
Cut the rolled dough into 12 equal pieces and place them, cut side down, in the prepared baking pan.
-
Repeat the process with the remaining half of the dough.
-
Cover the rolls and let them stand for 30 minutes to rise.
-
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until they are golden brown.
-
Allow the rolls to cool completely.
-
In a small bowl, beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar, 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk, and almond extract at low speed until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if needed.
-
Drizzle the cream cheese glaze over the cooled rolls and sprinkle with chopped pecans for an irresistible finish.
