Instructions

Step 1: Make the Dough

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of flour , granulated sugar , and yeast .
2. In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the milk and butter until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm to the touch (about 110°F).
3. Add the eggs and salt to the flour mixture, then gradually pour in the warm milk mixture, stirring until combined.
4. Gradually add the remaining flour (about 2½ cups), mixing until a soft dough forms.
5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5–7 minutes , or until smooth and elastic.
6. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1–1½ hours , or until doubled in size.

Step 2: Prepare the Filling

1. In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter , brown sugar , and cinnamon until smooth. Set aside.
2. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a 12×16-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface.
3. Spread the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
4. Sprinkle 1 cup of diced peaches evenly over the filling.

Step 3: Roll and Cut the Dough

1. Starting at one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
2. Using a sharp knife or dental floss, cut the log into 12 equal slices .
3. Place the slices in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish , leaving a little space between each roll. Cover and let them rise for 30–45 minutes , or until puffy.

Step 4: Bake the Rolls

2. Bake the rolls for 25–30 minutes , or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 5: Make the Peach Cobbler Topping

2. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly (about 5–7 minutes ). Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 6: Make the Icing

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar , milk , and vanilla extract until smooth. Add more milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, if needed to reach your desired consistency.

Step 7: Assemble and Serve

2. Drizzle the vanilla icing over the warm rolls for a sweet finishing touch.
3. Serve warm and enjoy the gooey, peachy goodness!

Tips for Success
