Butterscotch Rolls

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.

2. In a separate large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, milk, melted butter, salt, and eggs. Add the yeast mixture and mix well.

3. Slowly stir in the flour, one cup at a time, until the dough comes together. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.

4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size.

5. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a large rectangle on a floured surface.

6. Brush the surface of the dough with melted butter and sprinkle the butterscotch chips evenly. Add a dash of cinnamon if desired for extra warmth.

7. Starting from one end, tightly roll the dough into a log and slice it into rolls, about 1 ½ inches thick. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, leaving a little space between each one.

8. Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let them rise for an additional 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) during this time.

9. Once the rolls have proofed, bake them in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.

10. While the rolls are baking, prepare the butterscotch glaze by mixing powdered sugar, a splash of milk, and a few drops of butterscotch flavoring until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more sugar or milk as needed.

11. Once the rolls are out of the oven, let them cool slightly before drizzling the luscious butterscotch glaze over the top.

12. Serve these Butterscotch Rolls warm and enjoy the indulgent flavors of butterscotch in every bite. They are perfect for a weekend brunch or a special treat any time of the day!
