Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 1/2 cups frozen cherries
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar (for filling)
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 2 tablespoons corn starch
  • 1/4 cup warm water (for dough)

  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 1/2 cups bread flour
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (for frosting)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cherry filling: In a saucepan, combine frozen cherries, sugar, cold water, and corn starch. Cook over medium heat until thickened. Allow to cool.
  2. Make the dough: Combine warm water and yeast; let sit until foamy. Mix in milk, sugar, eggs, and salt in a bowl. Gradually add bread flour until a soft dough forms. Knead until smooth.
  3. Rise the dough: Place in greased bowl covered with plastic wrap; let rise until doubled in size (about 1 hour).
  4. Assemble rolls: Roll out dough into rectangle, spread cooled cherry filling evenly, roll tightly, and cut into slices.
  5. Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake rolls for 25–30 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Prepare frosting: Beat together butter and cream cheese; gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract while mixing well.
  7. Enjoy: Drizzle frosting over slightly cooled rolls and serve warm.
