Sweet Rolls
- Combine flours and salt. In the bowl of a stand mixer with the hook attachment, combine the milk and yeast. Add honey, eggs, and butter. Mix for 1 minute and add flour mix. Mix for 5-8 minutes. Dough should be elastic, and not sticky. Shape into a ball and place in an oiled bowl. Cover and proof for 1-1 1/2 hours or until doubled in size.
- Oil a countertop, hands and rolling pin. Roll the dough into a 10x15 inch rectangle. Spread the apple butter on the dough leaving a 1/2 inch border. Roll the dough into a log. Cut into 6 equal portions and place in a 8x8 baking pan. Cover and let rise for 45 minutes or doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake the rolls for 40 minutes. Remove from oven and cool before icing.
Maple Cream Cheese Icing
