Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, heat the milk and butter over low heat until the butter melts. Allow the mixture to cool until it reaches about 110°F (43°C).

  2. In a large mixing bowl, sprinkle the yeast over the warm milk mixture and let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.

  3. Add the granulated sugar, salt, eggs, and 2 cups of flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until well combined.

  4. Gradually add the remaining flour, Kahlua, and raisins to the dough, mixing until a soft dough forms.

  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-8 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.

  6. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

  7. Punch down the dough and roll it out into a 12x18-inch rectangle on a floured surface.

  8. Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough and sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon.

  9. Starting from one long edge, tightly roll up the dough and pinch the seam to seal. Cut the roll into 12 equal pieces.

  10. Place the rolls in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover and let them rise for another 30 minutes.

  11. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

  12. If desired, drizzle the warm rolls with cream cheese frosting before serving.
