Heavenly Honey Rolls Recipes

ALMOST HEAVEN HONEY BUTTER YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

• Mix milk, brown sugar, and white sugar together in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until warm, 40 to 50 seconds. Stir in yeast.
• Whisk 6 tablespoons butter and eggs in a separate bowl. Whisk into the milk mixture until just combined, 30 to 60 seconds. Stir in flour, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition until dough is smooth and still wet.
• Place dough in a greased bowl. Loosely cover and let rise in a warm, dry place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• Transfer dough to a floured work surface. Drizzle with honey and salt. Fold in half and repeat the honey-salt drizzle. Repeat folding and drizzling, 5 to 6 times.
• Roll dough into a rectangle about 1/2-inch in thickness. Cut into 12 equal pieces using a pizza cutter. Place rolls on lightly greased 9x13-inch baking pans or on lightly greased baking sheets. Cover rolls with a light cloth and let rise again until doubled in volume, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake rolls in the preheated oven until tops begin to brown, 11 to 14 minutes. Brush the remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter and some honey over the rolls right after removing from the oven.

HEAVENLY HONEY ROLLS

Steps:

• 1. If using frozen bread dough, thaw according to package directions. Cut each loaf into 12 pieces. If using your own dough recipe, divide into 24 pieces. Lightly butter (2) 9x13 baking dishes. with lightly floured hands, roll dough into "rope" shape, then coil into "snail" shape roll and place in the prepared baking pan. Repeat with each piece of dough, placing 12 rolls into each pan. Cover with plastic wrap that has been sprayed with nonstick pan coating spray. Let rise in a warm place until rolls have doubled in size.
• 2. While the rolls are raising, prepare the honey batter. In a glass or stainless steel bowl that is completely clean and residue free, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gradually add powdered sugar until all is incorporated. Blend in the softened butter until well combined, then blend in the honey. Preheat oven to 325 degrees, and space the racks evenly.
• 3. When the rolls have fully risen, place a very generous dollop of batter on every roll, making sure that each one is covered well. Place the pands in the preheated oven and bake for 45 - 50 minutes until the tops are golden brown and the rolls are cooked through. Allow the rolls to cool slightly and serve warm. When serving use a good spatula that will go all the way under the roll and the gooey honey goodness that is underneath.
