Servings: 12
Ingredients
Dough
- 1 package active dry yeast
- 1/4 cup warm water
- 1 cup warm milk 2%
- 1/4 cup shortening
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- 3 1/2-3 3/4 cups all purpose flour
Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 5-6 tsp butter softened
- 1 1/2 tsp lemon extract
- 4-5 tsp milk 2%
Instructions
- Dissolve dry yeast and warm water in a large bowl. Add milk, shortening, sugar, salt, egg and 3 cups of flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in remaining flour, enough to form a soft dough.
- On a lightly floured surface, knead dough for 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, turning to grease all sides. Cover dough and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size. Should take about 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine all filling ingredients; set aside until ready to use.
- Punch dough down and roll into long rectangle. Spread your filling and roll up, starting with a long end. Cut into even pieces, about 12-14.
- Place cut side down onto a greased 10x15 inch baking pan. Cover and let rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes. Bake for 20-25 minutes at 375°. Always check during baking. Rolls should be light golden brown.
- Combine the powdered sugar, butter, and extract in a small bowl. Add enough milk to achieve desired consistency; spread one while rolls are warm.
