Instructions
To Make the Dough
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 10 minutes.
- Add the flour, softened butter, and egg. Using the hook attachment, knead the dough on LOW speed until all flour is incorporated, then increased to medium speed to knead 5-6 minutes.
- Cover the dough to let rise in a warm environment for 1-2 hours, until doubled in size.
- Roll out the dough to a large rectangle that is ¼” thick.
To Make the Filling
- In a bowl, combine all ingredients. Mix until well incorporated. Spread the filling evenly over the rolled dough.
- Roll the dough up tightly lengthwise, then use a sharp serrated knife to slice 12 even pieces.
- Place them in a butter or parchment paper lined 9×13” baking pan. Cover and let rise in a warm environment for 30 minutes to 1 hour, until doubled in size.
- Preheat the oven to 375F.
- Evenly drizzle the ⅓ cup heavy cream over the risen rolls.
- Bake for 25-35 minutes, until deeply golden brown and the center rolls are set.
To Make the Frosting
- While the rolls bake, combine the softened butter and cream cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat for 1-2 minutes, until smooth.
- Add the vanilla, maple syrup, powdered sugar, and heavy cream. Mix on LOW speed until powdered sugar is incorporated, then beat on HIGH for 5-6 minutes, until frosting is light and fluffy.
- Frost the rolls while still warm and enjoy with BUBBL’R cranberry grapefruit sparkl’r for a complementary refreshment!
