sweet buns recipe-
These sweet and soft homemade buns combined with the sweet cream cheese and cherry filling make for the perfect dessert! They are my go-to dessert to make if we ever have guests or just crave something sweet that’s comforting. The dough of the buns is so soft once baked. The soft buns have a cream cheese filling and the cherry pie filling adds so much flavor to the already amazing dessert.
how to make sweet buns dough:
In a bowl, add flour and create an opening in the center of the flour.pour 2 whisked eggs in the center.In a small saucepan, heat up butter, sugar, milk. Once warm remove from heat.Pour warm milk mixture into center of the flour.Sprinkle sugar and yeast over mixture, allow yeast to activate.Mix until ingredients well combined.Cover dough and let rise for 1 1/2 hours.
NOTE: The brand of flour you use will make a difference in the amount needed. Start with 4 cups of flour. Add more flour, a few tablespoons at a time, until the dough no longer sticks to the sides of the mixing bowl. I mixed my dough by hand. The dough will lightly stick to your hand and that is what you want, but not the side of the bowl.
