Take butter out of fridge, put aside to soften.
Mix remaining ingredients together and set aside.
I make the dough for these rolls in my bread machine. If you are using your bread machine, add the ingredients for the dough in the order listed and choose the dough setting on your machine. You may use thawed "frozen" sweet dough, or mix this dough up in your stand mixer or by hand. See recipe notes for mixing by hand or with a stand mixer.*
Remove dough from bread machine when dough cycle is complete.
On floured surface, roll with rolling pin into an 8 x 14 inch rectangle. Spread the 1 tbsp of butter on top of rolled dough as if you were buttering bread.
Sprinkle with filling mixture.
Roll up jelly roll style starting on a long side.
Slide a length of dental floss underneath the roll. Bring the ends up, cross them over and pull to slice the long roll into 12 equal size rolls.
Place in greased 9x13 inch pan. Cover with loose cloth or I use plastic wrap sprayed with cooking oil. Let sit in warm location to raise until double their size.
Bake 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown.
Remove from over and remove from pan. Cool on cooling rack until warm.
Frost with frosting and serve warm.
*In small saucepan add milk and butter. Heat over low heat until butter is melted. Remove from heat and add extract and powdered sugar. Beat until smooth. Add an additional few drops of milk if frosting is too thick. If frosting is too thin, add additional powdered sugar.
*If mixing by had or in stand mixer. Add dough ingredients in the order that they are listed. Mix thoroughly. Cover and let raise until double in size. punch down and let rise a second time. When doubled again take out and continue with other directions
*The dough recipe originally comes from the cookbook, "Bread Machine Magic Book, of Helpful Hints"
