Gooey Cinnamon Buns with Thick Cream Cheese Icing image

Provided by Nancy Fuller

Categories     dessert

Time 3h5m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 package (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting the work surface
2 tablespoons butter, melted, plus more for buttering the bowl and baking dish
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 cups pecans, roughly chopped
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup milk

Steps:

  • For the dough: Place the yeast and 1 cup lukewarm water in the bowl of a stand mixer and whisk to combine. Fit the mixer with the dough hook and add the flour, butter, granulated sugar, salt and egg. Knead on medium-low speed until the dough forms a ball and releases easily from the sides of the bowl, about 4 minutes.
  • Butter a large bowl; transfer the dough to the bowl. Cover with a towel and set aside in a warm, draft-free place until the dough has doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
  • For the filling: In a medium bowl, stir together the pecans, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt and butter. Set aside.
  • Punch down the dough, then roll or press it into a 16-by-12-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Spread with the filling, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
  • Starting at one of the short ends, roll the dough into a cylinder and then slice into 12 rolls. Arrange the rolls, cut-side up, in four rows in the prepared baking dish. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and leave to rise in a warm, draft-free spot until nearly doubled in volume, about 45 minutes. Uncover and bake until golden on top, about 20 minutes.
  • For the thick cream cheese icing: Blend the cream cheese and confectioners' sugar in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the milk and mix until smooth. Top the warm cinnamon buns with icing and serve.

CREAM PUFF "CRACK BUNS" (CHOUX AU CRAQUELIN)



Cream Puff

These gorgeous cream puff "crack buns" were inspired by the Great British Baking Show, which is currently my favorite thing on television. Speaking of favorite things, Boston cream pie is one of my all-time favorite desserts, and this was basically an individually portioned, probably superior version of that. These would be great filled with all kinds of things, but it's hard to beat vanilla bean pastry cream (see footnote).

Time 2h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons butter, softened
¼ cup light brown sugar
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 pinch salt
½ cup cold water
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pinch salt
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 (4 ounce) bar dark chocolate, chopped, or as needed

Steps:

  • Mix butter, brown sugar, flour, and salt together in a large bowl using a spatula. Place dough between two sheets of waxed paper or inside a zip-top bag. Press or roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Trim off the edges slightly to get a rectangular shape, if desired. Freeze crust until ready to use.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat.
  • Combine water, butter, and salt in a saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add flour; stir with a wooden spoon until mixture comes together into a smooth dough and pulls away cleanly from the bottom of the pan. Transfer to a bowl and spread out with a whisk to speed up cooling. Cool until warm, about 10 minutes.
  • Whisk eggs, one at a time, into the pastry, mixing well after each addition. Finish mixing with a spatula. Scoop pastry into a pastry bag and pipe into 6 to 8 buns on the baking sheet. Smooth out tops with a wet finger.
  • Use a cookie cutter to cut crust into circles about the diameter of the buns. Lightly push crusts onto the buns, just enough to secure them.
  • Place buns in the preheated oven. Immediately reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake until browned and fully puffed, 30 to 40 minutes. Transfer buns onto a cooling rack and place rack back on the baking sheet. Place in the turned-off oven, leave door partially open, and let cool completely, at least 20 minutes.
  • Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, 1 to 3 minutes.
  • Spread a few teaspoons of melted chocolate onto the bottom of each bun. Gently press each chocolate base back on the baking sheet to spread it evenly. Let chocolate harden, about 1 hour.
