"These sweet rolls are very similar to the kind found in bakeries...only better! Pineapple adds just the right amount of sweetness. My husband can't eat just one."

Original Recipe Yield 24 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water (105 degrees to 115 degrees)
  • 5 tablespoons sugar, divided
  • 1 cup warm milk (110 to 115 degrees F)
  • 5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted, divided
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • TOPPING:
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, undrained
  • GLAZE:
  • 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon milk

Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add 1 tablespoon sugar; let stand for 5 minutes. Add milk and 1-1/2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes. Add the eggs, 1/4 cup butter, salt, remaining sugar and enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes. Punch dough down. Turn onto a floured surface; divide in half. Roll each into a 12-in. x 8-in. rectangle. Brush with some of the remaining butter. Roll up, jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Pinch seam to seal. Cut each into 12 slices. Place, cut side down, 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Brush with remaining butter. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine cornstarch and pineapple until blended. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat. Place a teaspoonful of filling in the center of each roll. Bake at 425 degrees F for 12-16 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks.
  3. For glaze, combine sugar, vanilla and enough milk to achieve desired consistency. Drizzle over warm rolls.
