Ingredients:

  • 1 package (1/4 oz) active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water (110o to 115o)
  • 1/2 cup warm 2% milk (110o to 115o)
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp lemon extract
  • 2 eggs
  • filling:
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup 2% milk
  • icing:
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 to 2 tbsp 2% milk

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the milk, butter, sugar, salt, lemon extract, eggs and 1 cup flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
  2. Turn onto a floured surface; gently knead for 2-3 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to greased top. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
  3. Punch dough down. Turn onto a floured surface; divide into four portions. Roll one portion into a 9-in. x 6-in. rectangle (refrigerate remaining portions until ready to roll out). Cut into 3-in. squares.
  4. In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, milk and vanilla until smooth. Place about 2 teaspoons filling in the center of each square. Moisten corners with water; bring over center of filling and pinch corners tightly in center. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
  5. Place seam side up 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets; brush with melted butter. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  6. Bake at 400° for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from pans to wire racks. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar, butter, vanilla and enough milk to achieve desired consistency; spread over warm buns. Yield: 2 dozen.
