My husband hasn’t been home in a few days, but he’s gonna be home in about 4 hours. So I decided to surprise him with a variation of one of his favorite desserts, which are cinnamon rolls.
I had a bunch of raspberries at home while I decided to make some raspberry lemon rolls. I started with my dough by combining some milk, sugar, butter, eggs, and then gradually adding in my flour. I made sure to mix it very well until it was all combined before pouring it out onto my counter and starting to knead it. I needed it for about eight to 10 minutes until it was all smooth and came together before placing it in a bowl to rise. After about two hours, it had doubled in size.
So I released all the air and then started on my filling up this very simple with some brown sugar, cornstarch and some frozen raspberries. They’ve got a mix before wrinkling that all over my diet. And try to get it as even as possible, and then rolled it up and sliced it into equal pieces. Buttered my baking tray and placed my rolls inside, making sure that they weren’t too close to each other before covering them in clean film and letting them rise for another hour and a half.
At this point, I preheated my oven and placed some more raspberries on top of my rolls before popping them in the oven for about 30 minutes. Bake them until they were golden brown and let them cool while I started my frosting, which was some cream cheese, milk, powdered sugar, lemon zest, vanilla and a squeeze of lemon juice. I mix that all up and then spread that on top of my rolls. 30 minutes later, lucky walked through the doors. So it was perfect timing. I played at him one and he absolutely loved it.
