  • 1/2 cup dark brown sugar (packed)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the blueberry filling by mixing frozen blueberries, brown sugar, lemon juice, water, and cornstarch in a saucepan over medium heat until thickened.
  2. Make the dough by combining warm milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, and instant yeast; let sit until foamy. Gradually add flour and knead until smooth.

  4. Roll out the dough, spread blueberry filling evenly, roll tightly, and slice into individual rolls.
  5. Arrange rolls in a greased baking dish and let rise again for 30 minutes. Bake at 350°F (175°C) until golden brown.
  6. For the frosting, whip softened butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, reserved blueberry filling, and heavy cream until smooth. Frost warm rolls before serving.
