-
On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough for 6 to 8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, turning to grease on all sides. Cover dough and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size. Should take about 1 hour.
Filling:
-
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine all filling ingredients; set aside until ready to use.
-
Punch dough down and roll into a long rectangle. Spread your filling and roll up, starting with a long end. Cut into even pieces, about 12 to 14.
-
Place cut side down onto a greased 10×15-inch baking pan. Cover and let rise for about 45 minutes until doubled in size.
-
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes at 375 degrees F. Always check during baking. Rolls should be light golden brown.
Glaze:
-
Combine the powdered sugar, butter, and extract in a small bowl. Add enough milk to achieve desired consistency; spread while rolls are warm.
-
Serve and enjoy.
