Directions

  1. 1

    Activate instant yeast according to the directions. In a bowl, combine eggs, melted butter, flour, salt, sugar, and the activated yeast mixture. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Knead the dough on a floured surface (or use a dough hook if you have one), for about 5 minutes, then place it in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise until doubled in size (about 1 hour).

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, mix all the ingredients for the filling together.

  4. 4

    Roll out the dough into a rectangle and spread the filling mixture into a thin layer.

  5. 5

    Roll up the dough tightly and cut into 8 slices. Place the rolls in a greased baking pan.

  6. 6

    Let the rolls rise for another 30-45 minutes.

  7. 7

    Preheat the oven to 375°, pour a cup of heavy cream over the rolls, and bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes or until golden. Don’t over-bake because you still want them to be soft.

  8. 8

    While the rolls are baking, prepare the frosting by mixing together cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Feel free to add in cream or milk or a smoother consistency.

  9. 9

    Once the rolls are done, spread the frosting over them while they are still warm. Serve and enjoy!
