Instructions
Prep Time: 45 mins (active) 4 hours (inactive) hours / Cook Time: 30 minutes / Yields: 12 rolls
Dough
Step 1

Add cream, milk and C&H® Granulated Sugar to a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the stand mixer bowl and allow the mixture to cool down to below 110°F, check with a thermometer.

Step 2

Sprinkle active dry yeast over the top of the milk mixture, stir and let it bloom for about 20 minutes. The mixture should visibly puff up.

Step 3

Sift the flour and stir in the salt. Add flour to the liquid mixture and knead with the dough hook on low speed until everything is incorporated and a wet dough forms.

Step 4

Scrape the dough out onto a floured countertop and knead a few times to form a ball. Place the dough ball into an oiled large bowl, cover with plastic, and allow to rise in a warm spot until double in size, about 2 hours.

Chef's Tip

You can also use C&H® Dark Brown Sugar for even a deeper flavor and more molasses taste in the filling and sauce.
