Total preparation time: 3 hours
Preparation time: 1 hour
Rising time: 1 hour and 30 minutes
Baking time: 25 minutes
Number of servings: 12 rolls
Ingredients for the dough:
- 600 g flour
- 250 ml milk
- 125 g sugar
- 80 g soft butter
- 2 eggs
- 30 g fresh yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Ingredients for the filling:
- 250 g brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- 80 g soft butter
Ingredients for the glaze:
- 100 g soft butter
- 250 g powdered sugar
- 100 g cream cheese
- 100 g chopped nuts
Ingredients for the caramel sauce:
- 300 g sugar
- 150 ml liquid cream
- 80 g butter
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
Preparing the dough:
1. Activating the yeast: In a small bowl, mix the yeast with a little sugar and add about 100 ml of warm milk. Sprinkle a little flour on top and stir gently. Cover the bowl with a towel and let it sit for 10-15 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy and doubles in volume.
2. Mixing the ingredients: In a large bowl, add the remaining flour, eggs, salt, dissolved sugar in the remaining milk, and soft butter. Mix the ingredients with a spatula or with your hands until you get a homogeneous dough.
3. Kneading: Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it becomes elastic and smooth. If the dough is too sticky, add a little flour, but don’t overdo it, as a wet dough will lead to fluffier rolls.
4. First rise: Grease a bowl with a little oil and place the dough inside, covering it with a clean towel. Let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in volume.
Preparing the filling:
5. Mixing the filling: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar with the ground cinnamon. This mixture will give an intense flavor and unmistakable aroma to your rolls.
Forming the rolls:
6. Rolling out the dough: Once the dough has risen, sprinkle a little flour on the work surface and roll it out into a rectangular sheet, not too thick (about 1 cm).
7. Applying the filling: Spread the sheet of dough with soft butter and evenly sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon mixture. Make sure to cover the entire surface for better flavor!
8. Rolling the dough: Carefully roll the sheet lengthwise, forming a tight cylinder. Make sure the roll is compact so it doesn’t unravel during baking.
9. Cutting the rolls: Using kitchen twine or a knife, cut the roll into pieces about 4-5 cm long. You will get nicely proportioned rolls!
10. Placing in the pan: Place the rolls in a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving spaces between them to allow for rising. Cover the tray with a towel and let the rolls rise for 30 minutes.
Baking the rolls:
11. Preheating the oven: While the rolls are rising, preheat the oven to 180°C (moderate heat).
12. Baking: Bake the rolls for about 25 minutes, or until they become golden and fluffy. Check with a toothpick; if it comes out clean, the rolls are ready!
Preparing the glaze:
13. Mixing the ingredients: In a bowl, mix the soft butter, cream cheese, and powdered sugar until you get a smooth and homogeneous cream. This glaze will add extra creaminess and flavor to the rolls.
Preparing the caramel sauce:
14. Caramelizing the sugar: In a saucepan, place the sugar to melt. Stir continuously until it takes on an amber color. Be careful not to burn it, as burnt caramel becomes bitter.
15. Adding butter and cream: When the sugar is caramelized, add the butter and mix well. Then, add the liquid cream and let the mixture boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
16. Thickening the sauce: Dissolve the cornstarch in a little cream and add it to the caramel sauce. Stir until the sauce becomes thicker and homogeneous. Let it cool slightly.
Finalizing the preparation:
17. Glazing the rolls: When the rolls are ready, pour the cream cheese glaze over them while they are still warm, so it melts slightly. Then, add the caramel sauce and sprinkle the chopped nuts on top. This mix of textures and flavors will turn the dessert into a masterpiece!
Serving suggestions: These rolls are delicious warm, but can also be enjoyed at room temperature. Serve them alongside a cup of coffee or a fragrant tea for a complete experience. Also, try pairing them with vanilla ice cream for a more decadent dessert!
