Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine frozen blueberries, granulated sugar, and corn starch. Cook over medium heat for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Let it cool completely, reserving some for frosting.
- Warm whole milk to about 110°F, then sprinkle active dry yeast and a pinch of sugar. Let it bloom for 10 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, blend all-purpose flour, salt, and remaining sugar. Stir in eggs, lemon zest, softened butter, and yeast mixture until combined.
- Transfer to a floured surface and knead by hand or with a stand mixer for 7-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Shape dough into a ball, place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 1 to 1.5 hours.
- Mix softened butter, brown sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt in a small bowl to create the filling.
- After rising, punch down the dough and roll it to an 18x12-inch rectangle. Spread lemon filling, leaving a border, dollop blueberry jam on top.
- Starting from one edge, tightly roll into a log and slice into 12 equal pieces. Place in a greased baking dish.
- Pour room temperature heavy cream between rolls. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 22-25 minutes until lightly golden and filling is bubbling.
- Prepare frosting by beating cream cheese and butter until creamy, then mix in powdered sugar, lemon zest, and reserved blueberry jam.
- Once rolls cool for about 10 minutes, spread cream cheese frosting on top.
