Instructions

Step 1
Install the dough blade in the 72 oz Power Pitcher. Add all dough ingredients in the order listed. 

Step 2
Install the lid, then select DOUGH and press START/STOP. 

Step 3
Once the program in complete, place dough ball in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and allow to rise for 30 to 40 minutes or until dough has doubled in size. 

Step 4
While dough is rising, add filling ingredients to the 72-ounce Power Pitcher. Install the lid, then select DOUGH and press START/STOP. Remove dough blade. Put filling in a bowl and set aside.

Once the dough has risen, place onto a floured surface and roll out to a 18”x10 “rectangle. Place the prepared filling onto the dough and spread evenly. Next, roll the dough length wise and cut into 12 evenly sized rolls.

Place rolls into a greased 9”x 13” pan and cover with plastic wrap. Allow to rise until doubled in size. 

Step 7
Once the dough has risen, preheat the oven to 350F. Remove the plastic wrap from the pan and bake 30-40 minutes or until golden brown. 

Step 8
Remove rolls from oven and allow to cool. Mix icing ingredients and cover the rolls, as desired.
