Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 1 cups Whole milk
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 large Eggs
- 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 large Egg (for egg wash)
- 1 teaspoons Water (for egg wash)
- 1 cups Powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 2 tablespoons Milk (for glaze)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract (for glaze)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and instant yeast.
Heat the milk until lukewarm (about 110°F) and add it to the dry ingredients along with the softened butter and eggs.
Knead the dough by hand or using a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook until it is smooth and elastic, about 7-10 minutes.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
While the dough rises, prepare the cream cheese filling by combining the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Beat until smooth and set aside.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out onto a lightly floured surface into a rectangle measuring approximately 18x12 inches.
Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Starting at the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut the log into 12 equal spiral slices.
Place each slice on a parchment-lined baking sheet, flattening slightly to create a coil shape. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise again for 30 minutes until puffy.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Make an egg wash by whisking the egg with 1 teaspoon of water. Brush the tops of the coils with the egg wash.
Bake the coils in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.
While the coils bake, prepare the glaze by mixing the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and pourable.
Once baked, let the coils cool for 10 minutes before drizzling the glaze over the top.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your creamy, buttery treat!
