RED WHITE AND BLUE BERRY ROLLS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the dough: in a large bowl, combine the warm milk, melted butter, and granulated sugar.
• Add the yeast, baking powder, salt, and 2 cups (250 g) of flour. Stir to combine.
• Add 2 more cups (250 g) of flour and stir until the dough comes together.
• Flour a clean surface with the remaining cup of flour. Coat your hands with flour. Dump the dough out onto the floured surface and knead until smooth, about 10 minutes.
• Place the dough in a large oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise for 2 hours in a warm area until it's doubled in size.
• Make the filling: in a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until smooth.
• In a medium bowl, combine the raspberry jam with one tablespoon of the cream cheese filling.
• In a small bowl, combine the blueberry jam with one teaspoon of the cream cheese filling.
• Once the dough has risen, lightly flour a clean surface and roll the dough out to a 10x15-inch (25x38-cm) rectangle, about ¼ inch (6 mm) thick.
• Brush about 5 inches (13 cm) of the roll with the cream cheese filling, about 8 inches (20 cm) of the roll with the raspberry filling, and about 1½ inches (3 cm) with the blueberry filling. Set aside the leftover cream cheese filling.
• Starting from the bottom, roll up the dough and cut into 9 equal pieces.
• Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) square baking dish with nonstick spray and line with parchment paper.
• Place the rolls in the pan, with the blueberry roll and 2 raspberry rolls in the top row, 3 cream cheese rolls in the middle row, and 3 raspberry rolls in the bottom row, to look like an American flag.
• Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let rise for 1 hour in a warm area, until doubled in size.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Bake the rolls for 25 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
• Remove the rolls from the baking dish.
• Microwave the reserved cream cheese filling for about 30 seconds, until pourable. Drizzle on top of the rolls.
• Enjoy!

GOLDEN RAISIN BREAKFAST BUNS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375.
• Grease cookie sheets, or spray with non-stick spray.
• Plump the raisins by covering them with very hot water and letting them sit for 5 minutes; then drain them and put them on a paper towel to dry.
• Combine the water, butter, sugar and salt in a saucepan.
• Bring to a boil, then add the flour all at once.
• Stir with a wooden spoon over low heat until you have a smooth, thick dough.
• Remove from the heat and beat for 2 minutes on low speed or by hand to cool it slightly.
• Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition, until the mixture has a satiny sheen.
• Stir in the raisins.
• Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart on greased cookie sheet.
• Bake for 30 to 35 minutes.
• The buns should pretty much double in size, and be golden and firm.
• While the buns are baking, prepare the icing by combining all the ingredients in a bowl and blending until smooth and of spreading consistency.
• Add more cream if necessary.
• When the buns are done, place on a wire rack to cool and frost while still warm.
• This makes about 8-12 buns depending on the size you make them.
