I found this recipe a long time ago in a Southern Living Magazine. I changed the recipe a little but this is something I make my family from time-to-time as a special treat. I only use fresh blueberries but I know this recipe would be just as great... More

Ingredients
  • Prep time does not include cinnamon roll dough rising. =D
  • 1/4 c. milk
  • 1/4 c. sugar
  • 1/2 t. salt
  • 3 T. Butter
  • 1 package Dry Yeast
  • 1/4 c. Warm Water (105-115 degrees)
  • 2 1/4 c. flour; divided
  • 1 lrg. egg
  • 2 T. butter softened
  • 1/3 c. brown sugar; firmly packed
  • 1 T. ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 c. fresh or frozen blueberries
  • Frosting:
  • 6 oz. cream cheese; room temperature
  • 1 c. powdered sugar
  • 1/4 c. heavy cream
  • 1/2 t. vanilla extract

Directions
  1. Combine 1/4 c. milk, sugar, salt, and 3 Tablespoons butter in a saucepan; heat until butter melts. Cool to 105 degrees to 115 degrees. Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large mixing bowl; let stand 5 minutes. Stir in milk mixture, 1 1/2 cups flour, and egg; beat at medium speed of an electric mixer until smooth. Stir in remaining 3/4 cup flour. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic (about 8 minutes) OR use a dough hook with your mixer and mix on medium speed for 5 minutes. Place in a well-greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85 degrees about), free from drafts (use Saran wrap over bowl), 1 hour (dough will not quite double in bulk).
  2. Punch dough down; turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll dough into a 12 x 8 - inch rectangle; spread with 2 Tablespoons of butter. Combine brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle mixture over rectangle. Sprinkle with blueberries. Roll dough jellyroll style, starting at long side. Pinch seam to seal (do not seal ends). Cut roll into 1-inch slices; place slices, cut side down, in greased 7 x 11 or 8-inch square pan. The size of pan you choose is up to whether you want really tall rolls or medium sized rolls. The bake the same length of time. Brush tops with 1 tablespoon melted butter. Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts (again use Saran wrap over dish), about 40 minutes (rolls will not double in bulk). Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.
  3. For Frosting: Beat all ingredients together with a mixer until combined. Top warm rolls generously with icing after they have cooled slightly.
