SWEDISH CARDAMOM ROLLS

Steps:

• Make dough:
• In a large bowl combine water, butter, and sugar. Sprinkle yeast over mixture and let stand 5 minutes, or until foamy. Stir in eggs, salt and dry milk until combined. With a wooden spoon stir in 5 sups flour, 1 cup at a time, and stir mixture until a dough is formed.
• On a floured surface, knead dough about 10 minutes, adding enough of the remaining 1 cup flour to make dough smooth and elastic. Put dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat, and let rise, covered with plastic wrap, in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• Punch down dough and on floured surface with a floured rolling pin roll into a 15- by 20-inch rectangle. Spread butter over dough and sprinkle with granulated sugar, cinnamon and cardamom.
• With a long side facing you, roll up dough jelly-roll fashion and cut crosswise into approximately 1 1/2-inch-thick slices with a cut side down. Working with 1 slice at a time gently twist opposite ends of slice around twice to form a figure eight. Crimp ends together. Arrange rolls, a swirled side up, on a buttered baking sheet about 2 inches apart and let rise in a warm place until increased 1 1/2 times in bulk, about 1 hour.
• While rolls are rising, preheat oven to 350F.
• Brush tops of rolls with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar. Bake rolls in middle of oven until tops are pale golden, about 25 minutes.

LEMON SWEET ROLLS WITH CREAM CHEESE ICING

Steps:

• Make the dough: Combine the yeast, buttermilk and 1 tablespoon sugar and let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Add the butter, remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, lemon zest, salt and cardamom to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix on low to combine. Add the eggs and buttermilk mixture, and stir until combined.
• With the mixer on low speed, slowly add 4 cups/510 grams of the flour and stir until all of the flour is moistened. Switch to the dough hook, and mix for 5 more minutes. The dough will be soft and billowy, and it will stick to the bottom of the bowl. Add more flour if the dough seems very, very soft.
• Transfer the dough to a fresh, lightly oiled bowl. Turn the dough to coat it with oil, then cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Alternately, refrigerate the dough before rising for up to 24 hours and proceed with the recipe as written. The rolls may need a slightly longer second rise.
• Make the filling: Combine the sugar, lemon zest, cardamom and a pinch of salt. Use your fingers to rub the lemon zest into the sugar.
• Assemble the rolls: Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with parchment paper and butter the pan and paper. Gently deflate the dough by folding it over itself a few times in the bowl. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and pat or roll it into a rectangle about 12-by-16-inches and 1/4-inch thick. Gently spread the soft butter over the dough, and sprinkle the sugar mixture evenly over the top. Roll the dough into a tight log and use a serrated knife or length of floss to cut the log into 12 even pieces.
• Place the rolls into the prepared pan, cover, and let rise again until doubled in size, about 1 hour. You can also refrigerate the rolls before the second rise for up to 24 hours, if you'd like to bake them later. Let the rolls rise at room temperature until doubled in size before baking.
• Finish the rolls: Heat oven to 350 degrees and bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the rolls are golden and cooked through. While the rolls are baking, make the icing: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. The icing should be quite thick, but spreadable. Add a little more lemon juice if necessary.
• Let the rolls cool for about 5 minutes, then spread the icing over the top. Enjoy warm.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water; stir to dissolve; set aside.
• Heat 1/2 cup milk in a small saucepan to just simmering; remove from the heat; add the 1/2 cup cut-up butter, stirring until melted; stir in 2 teaspoons of the cardamom, 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar and salt; allow the mixture to cool to warm.
• Pour the warm milk mixture into the large bowl of an electric mixer; add the yeast mixture then beat in the eggs one at a time; beat in 2 cups of the flour until smooth; add enough of the remaining flour to make the dough easy to handle.
• Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured board; knead until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes; place in a buttered bowl, turning to coat all sides with butter; cover, let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Heat oven to 350°; turn the dough out onto a floured board; roll with a rolling pin into an 18x12-inch rectangle; spread the 2 tablespoons of softened butter to within 1/2 inch of the edge of the dough; sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar combined with remaining 1/2 teaspoon cardamom.
• Roll the dough up tightly from the long side to form a cylinder; slice into 12 rolls.
• Place the cut rolls in a buttered 13x9 inch baking pan.
• Cover; let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes to an hour.
• Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes; remove from the oven and let stand 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, for glaze, combine confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup milk, 2 tablespoons butter and vanilla; stir until smooth.
• Drizzle the glaze over the rolls and sprinkle with chopped hazelnuts.
