Yield: 12 rolls
Ingredients
For the dough:
- 1 cup warm milk (about 110-115°F)
- ¼ cup melted butter
- 1 egg
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 package (2¼ tsp, ¼oz, 7g) RED STAR Quick·Rise Yeast
- 3-4 cups bread flour
- 1 tsp salt
For the filling:
- 4 oz cream cheese
- ½ cup crunchy peanut butter
- ⅓ cup powdered sugar
For the chocolate glaze:
- ½ cup cocoa powder
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 4 Tbsp milk
Instructions
- Add milk, butter egg, sugar and yeast into a mixing bowl and whisk together to combine. Let set 5 minutes or until mixture starts to bubble. Add 1 cup of flour and salt to the yeast mixture. Stir together adding 1- 2 cups of additional flour until dough comes together.
- Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead for 3 to 5 minutes, until dough is smooth and no longer sticky. Add more flour as needed, until dough is soft and elastic. Cover and let rest 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Prepare filling: In a mixing bowl combine peanut butter, cream cheese, butter and powdered sugar until smooth.
- Roll dough to about a 10x12- inch rectangle. Spread filling evenly over dough. Roll up from the long side, pinching the seam together. Cut into 12 slices with a sharp serrated knife. Place on a greased baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Cover and let rise about 1 - 1½ hours.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until rolls are golden brown. Cover loosely with foil the last 5 minutes to prevent over-browning.
- Prepare glaze: Mix cocoa powder and powdered sugar together and whisking in milk, 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency. Drizzle over baked rolls.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. Best if enjoyed within 1 day of baking. Store leftovers, covered in refrigerator.
