For the Sweet Roll Dough:
- 1 cup milk (warmed)
- 2 1/2 tsp instant yeast (1 package)
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 4 cups flour
- 1 tsp salt
For the Filling:
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 TBS cinnamon
- 2 cups diced peaches
For the Cream Cheese Frosting:
- 6 oz cream cheese
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 TBS milk
- 3/4 tsp vanilla
For the Sweet Roll Dough:
Dissolve the yeast in the warm milk in a large bowl, and let them sit together for a few minutes, until the yeast gets bubbly. 1 cup milk, 2 1/2 tsp instant yeast
Add eggs, butter, and sugar to the bowl and mix well. 2 eggs, 1/2 cup butter, 1/3 cup sugar
Add the flour and the salt and mix. 4 cups flour, 1 tsp salt
Once the dough starts to come away from the edges, knead for about 5 minutes (if you are using your hands, dust them lightly with flour to avoid sticking) until a large ball is formed.
Cover the bowl with a towel and allow to rise for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until dough has doubled in size.
Lightly flour your counter top and roll the dough out until it is approximately 16x21 inches, and 1/4 inch thick.
For the Filling:
Spread melted butter over the surface of your dough. 1/3 cup butter
Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.1 cup brown sugar, 2 TBS cinnamon
Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture generously over the surface of the dough (using the butter to make it stick).
Sprinkle the chopped peaches over the top of the cinnamon sugar mixture. 2 cups diced peaches
Carefully roll the dough from the long top edge to the bottom edge.
Using thread (wrap the thread around the bottom of the roll, bring up and cross over each other and pull tight), or a very sharp knife, cut dough into 1 to 1.5 inch slices.
Place the cinnamon rolls into a lightly greased 9x13 pan.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Let the rolls sit while the oven preheats.
Bake the rolls for 18 to 22 minutes, or until they turn a lighten golden color.
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for a bit.
For the Cream Cheese Frosting:
In a large bowl combine the cream cheese, and butter until smooth. 6 oz cream cheese, 1/4 cup unsalted butter
Add in the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract using a hand mixer until nice and smooth. 2 cups powdered sugar, 1 TBS milk, 3/4 tsp vanilla
Apply frosting generously to rolls.
