Instructions

Make the Filling: In a saucepan, combine frozen cherries, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, cold water, and corn starch. Cook until the mixture thickens. Set aside to cool.
Activate The Yeast: In a small bowl, mix warm water with active dry yeast, allowing it to foam.
Make The Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine whole milk, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, eggs, bread flour, salt, and butter. Add the yeast mixture and combine until smooth.
First Rise: Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place until it doubles in size.
Make The Rolls: Roll the dough out onto a floured surface, spreading the cherry filling evenly over the top. Roll tightly and cut into 12 equal rolls.
Second Rise: Place the rolls in a greased baking pan, cover, and let them sit until they double in size again.
Bake and Frost: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Let them cool slightly before frosting with a mixture of cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and whole milk.

Notes

Store leftover rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Can be frozen for up to 2 months.
