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.
