Ingredients
- 3-1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cupsugar
- 1 envelope Fleischmann’s Active Dry or RapidRise Yeast
- 1 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup evaporated milk
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 large eggs
Cranberry Orange Filling:
- 1 cup finely chopped fresh cranberries
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1-1/2 teaspoons grated orange peel
Vanilla Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp Spice Islands Pure Vanilla Extract
- 4 to 5 tsp milk
Instructions
NOTE: Refrigerate Time: 2 to 24 hours; Proof Time: 30 to 45 minutes; Bake Time: 12 to 15 minutes
Dough:
- Combine 1-1/2 cups flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, and salt in a large bowl; set aside.
- Heat milk, butter and water until very warm (120°F to 130°F).
- Pour the warm milk mixture in a large mixing bowl and gradually add to flour mixture; beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally.
- Add eggs and an additional 1/2 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed, scraping bowl occasionally.
- Stir in enough of the remaining flour remaining flour to make stiff batter (when poked it leaves an indention and is not sticky).
- Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap; refrigerate 2 to 24 hours.
Cranberry Filling
- In a medium saucepan; bring to boil cranberries, sugar and orange peel over medium heat.
- Reduce heat; simmer, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes or until very thick. Remove mixture from heat, and let cool.
- Refrigerate until dough is ready.
Shaping the Pastries:
- Remove the dough and cranberry filling from the refrigerator. Punch dough down and pour out onto a lightly floured surface.
- With a rolling pin, roll to a 21 x 12-inch rectangle.
- Spread Cranberry Filling over dough to within 1/2 inch of edges (leave the edges clean so they’ll seal completely)
- Fold crosswise in thirds, to enclose filling, making a 12 x 7-inch rectangle and press the edges to seal (wet your fingers and use them to moisten the dough if necessary)
- Cut the dough into 12 (1-inch) strips then holding the ends of each strip, twist three times. Pinch together ends of each twisted strip to form tarts; place on greased baking sheets.
- Cover the shaped rolls with a light tea towel and let rise in a warm, draft-free area until almost doubled in size, about 30 to 45 minutes.
- Bake at 400°F for 12 to 15 minutes or until done,switching positions of sheets halfway through baking time for even browning. Remove tarts from baking sheets; let cool on wire racks.
Vanilla Glaze:
- Combine powdered sugar, vanilla, and 4 tsp milk until smooth. Add more milk if necessary to reach the desired consistency. When buns are cool, drizzle with frosting.
