Time 1h15m

Yield 4 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (8 ounce) carton sour cream, light
4 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast (2 packets)
1/2 cup warm water (100-110 degrees)
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
4 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup apricot preserves
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
16 ounces blocks cream cheese, softened (1/3 less fat version)
1 large egg, lightly beaten
cooking spray
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 tablespoons nonfat milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • To prepare dough, combine the first 4 ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat; cool. Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large bowl, let stand 5 minutes. Stir in sour cream mixture and 2 eggs. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Gradually stir flour into sour cream mixture (dough will be soft and sticky). Cover dough; chill 8 hours or overnight.
  • To prepare filling; combine preserves and next 4 ingredients (preserves through 1 egg) in a medium bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until well blended.
  • Divide dough into 4 equal portions. Turn each portion out onto a lightly floured surface; knead lightly 4 or 5 times. Roll each portion into a 12x8 inch rectangle. Spread one-fourth of filling over each portion, leaving a 1/2 inch border. Starting at a long side, carefully roll up each portion "jellyroll fashion"; pinch seam and ends to seal.
  • Place 2 loaves on each of 2 baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Cut 4 (1/4-inch deep) "X"s in top of each loaf with scissors. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85 degrees), free from drafts, 25 minutes or until doubled in size.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place 1 baking sheet in oven (cover remaining loaves to keep from drying). Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes or until lightly browned Repeat procedure for remaining loaves. Cool loaves slightly.
  • To prepare glaze, combine powdered sugar , milk and 1tsp. vanilla extract, stirring with a whisk. Drizzle warm loaves with glaze.
