Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups flour with sugar, yeast, and salt. Warm milk to 110°F, add melted butter, then pour into dry ingredients. Add eggs and vanilla, beat until smooth.
- Gradually add remaining flour until dough pulls away from bowl sides. Knead 5-6 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place dough in greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled (1-1.5 hours).
- Meanwhile, toss raspberries with cornstarch and 1/4 cup sugar. In separate bowl, mix softened butter with brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Punch down risen dough and roll into 18×14 inch rectangle on floured surface.
- Spread cinnamon-sugar butter mixture evenly, leaving 1/2-inch border on one long edge. Distribute prepared raspberries over cinnamon mixture.
- Starting with the filled long edge, tightly roll dough into log. Pinch seam to seal and cut into 12 equal rolls.
- Place rolls in greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Cover and let rise until puffy (30-45 minutes).
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
- While baking, whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, zest, melted butter, and vanilla for glaze.
- Let rolls cool 5-10 minutes before drizzling with lemon glaze. Serve warm.
