Ingredients

For the Run Roll Dough:

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoons dry instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup butter melted
  • 1 egg whisked
  • 1 cup warm milk + 2 tablespoons

For the inside Rum Roll Filling:

  • ¼ cup butter melted
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

For the Rum Roll Glaze:

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 ½ tablespoon milk
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons rum flavoring

Instructions

For the Rum Roll Dough:

  • In a mixing bowl fitted with a dough hook, combine all of the dough ingredients.
  • Mix for 20 minutes until dough is smooth.
  • Spray the inside of a bowl with cooking spray, place the dough inside, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Punch down the dough. Roll out into a large rectangle.
  • Brush the melted butter over the surface of the dough. Sprinkle with the brown sugar and the cinnamon.
  • Roll the rectangle of dough up and cut into 12 equal sized pinwheels.
  • Place each of the 12 pinwheels into a greased muffin pan.
  • Cover the pan and let the rolls rise until they have doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 F.
  • Cover the pan with tinfoil and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and continue baking for about 5-7 minutes or until they are golden on top.
  • While they are baking, prepare the Rum Roll Glaze.
  • Combine the butter, brown sugar and milk/cream in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Remove from heat and add the powdered sugar and rum flavoring. Stir until smooth.
  • Brush the Rum Glaze over the Hot Rolls fresh from the oven, reserving some.
  • Once the rolls have had time to cool a bit (about 10 minutes), drizzle on the rest of the rum glaze.
  • Enjoy hot or at room temp.
