30 25 55

Ingredients

1 cup warm milk (70° to 80°)
2 eggs
1/3 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
4-1/2 cups bread flour
2-1/2 teaspoons bread machine yeast
FILLING:
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup finely chopped peeled apples
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup chopped pecans
2-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
ICING:
1-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt

Directions

In bread machine pan, place the first seven ingredients in order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough setting (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed). When cycle is completed, turn dough onto a well-floured surface.
Roll into a 21-in. x 16-in. rectangle; brush with butter. Combine the apples, brown sugar, pecans and cinnamon; spoon over dough to within 1/2 in. of edges. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seam to seal. Cut into 1-3/4-in. slices.
Place cut side down in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 325° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
In a small bowl, beat the icing ingredients. Spread over warm rolls. Yield: 12 servings.

Editor's Note: We recommend you do not use a bread machine's time-delay feature for this recipe.
