Raspberry Cream Cheese Cinnamon Rolls
- 1 Tablespoon Yeast
- 1-3/4 cup Warm Water
- 7 cups Donut Mix
- 1 stick Butter
- 3/4 cups Brown Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 cup Raspberry Filling
- 1-1/2 cup Cream Cheese Filling
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla
- 2 Tablespoons Milk
- Mix the water and yeast, then add the donut mix. Or, if you'd rather use your regular cinnamon roll dough recipe, that would work too.
- Let rise till doubled. Reserve 1/4 of dough. Roll out the 3/4 and spread with 3/4 of the butter and brown sugar and cinnamon. Roll it up, cut into 12 pieces, and lay each piece (cut side down) in a 9x13 or larger pan.
- Tips for cutting rolls: I use a string... slide it under the rolls, bring the ends up over, cross them and pull, and it makes a nice cut without smashing... ok, maybe everyone cuts rolls like that... I learned it from my mom. Also, to get them an even 12 pieces, cut in the middle first, then each section in half, then thirds from there.
- Pipe raspberry filling and cream cheese filling on top of rolls.
- Note: If you don't have access to the cream cheese filling, try this: 8 oz softened cream cheese, 1 egg, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1/2 tsp. vanilla. Beat till smooth. Put it in a plastic storage bag (or a decorating bag), cut the corner off, and pipe it onto the rolls.
- Roll out the reserved dough. Spread with reserved butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon and cut into small pieces (about 1/2" squares). Lay on top of filling. Let rise about an hour.
- Bake 25-30 min at 350. Let cool for several minutes. Drizzle with glaze (powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk).
