BASIC SWEET-ROLL DOUGH

Steps:

• Warm 1/2 cup water and the milk in a saucepan over low heat until a thermometer registers 100 degrees F to 110 degrees F. Remove from the heat and sprinkle the yeast on top, then sprinkle with a pinch of the sugar; set aside, undisturbed, until foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Whisk the melted butter, egg yolk and vanilla into the yeast mixture until combined. In a large bowl, whisk the flour, the remaining sugar, the salt and nutmeg. Make a well in the center, then add the yeast mixture and stir with a wooden spoon to make a thick and slightly sticky dough. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until soft and elastic, about 6 minutes. Shape into a ball.
• Brush a large bowl with butter. Add the dough, turning to coat lightly with the butter. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until the dough is doubled in size, about 1 hour, 15 minutes.
• Turn the dough out of the bowl and knead briefly to release excess air; re-form into a ball and return to the bowl. Lightly butter a large piece of plastic wrap and lay it directly on the surface of the dough. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.

SWEET ROLLS WITH CHERRY

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast into the warm milk. Let temper for 5 minutes. In a separate (mixer)bowl,while yeast is tempering, cream sugar and butter. Add salt, eggs, and gradually add flour to mix well.
• 2. Pour the milk/yeast mixture into the flour mixture and using the dough hook, mix til well incorporated. Place dough into an oiled bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place about 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
• 3. Punch the dough down and then roll it out on a lightly floured surface, until it is approx 16 inches long by 12 inches wide and approx 1/4" thick.
• 4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees while you spread the cherry pie filling evenly over the entire surface of the dough. Working carefully starting at the outside long edge, roll the dough towards the opposite long side, jelly roll style. Cut the roll into 1 3/4 inch slices, and place in a lightly greased baking pan, filling side up. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until light golden brown. If you would like to drizzle with a confectioners sugar glaze, wait til the rolls have slightly cooled and then do so. Enjoy!

SWEET PINEAPPLE ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine pineapple, egg yolks, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and salt in a blender; blend until smooth.
• Pour into a saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat, whisking constantly. Cook and stir until curd thickens, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and whisk in butter until fully incorporated. Transfer to a small bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and chill until set, 2 to 3 hours.
• Start the dough after the curd has been chilling for 1 hour. Pour milk and pineapple juice into a microwave-safe glass measuring cup. Warm for 30 seconds in the microwave. Stir in yeast until dissolved. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Stir egg, sugar, and lemon zest into the yeast mixture. Pour into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment. Add all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, and salt. Mix until dough comes together. Add butter gradually, with the mixer running, until it is fully incorporated into into the dough. Knead until dough leaves the sides of the bowl and looks smooth, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Lift dough out of the bowl and spray the bowl with cooking spray. Return dough to the bowl and turn to coat. Cover the bowl with a clean dish towel and let dough rise until almost doubled, about 1 hour.
• Place a baking sheet in the refrigerator.
• Turn the dough out onto a silicone baking mat and roll into a 12x15-inch rectangle. Slide the mat onto the cold baking sheet and return to the refrigerator for 15 minutes. This will make the dough easier to roll and cut.
• Spread a thin layer of pineapple curd evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border on 3 sides. Roll up lengthwise starting from the edge closest to you. Use a sharp or serrated knife to cut the log into 12 even pieces.
• Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and arrange rolls in the pan, spacing them out slightly. Cover loosely and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) near the end of the second rise.
• Uncover the rolls and bake in the preheated oven until light golden, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stir confectioners' sugar, milk, 1 tablespoon pineapple curd, lemon juice, and salt together for the glaze. Add milk if glaze is too thick. Drizzle glaze over the warm rolls.

FRUITY SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix the sugar, vinegar, maraschino cherry juice, and pineapple juice in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
• Place the cornstarch in a small bowl, and stir the water into it to make a smooth paste. Stir the cornstarch paste into the juice mixture, and bring to a simmer. Stir constantly until the mixture thickens, about 1 minute.
