I’ve had so much fun creating and sharing festive Valentine’s Day recipes with you this year! As a secret lover of anything adorable, pink, and heart-shaped, whipping up sweet treats that meet all those Valentine’s Day requirements hasn’t felt like work at all. I’ve already shared my over-the-top Valentine’s Day Cake, decadent Lava Brownies, and gourmet Chocolate Covered Strawberries.
Not to mention my fabulous contributor Rachael shared her Red Velvet Molten Lava Cakes. I realized that I hadn’t shared something that might be made for a special romantic breakfast so I came up with these Heart Shaped Raspberry Rolls!
They’re absolutely beautiful, festive, and take just 1 hour to make from scratch. Of course, I had to drizzle a little Nutella on top to act as the icing because what’s a Valentine’s Day recipe without some chocolate?
INGREDIENTS
- Dough
- 1 cup lukewarm whole milk
- 1/3 cup lukewarm water
- 1 package (2 1/4 teaspoons) instant yeast
- 3 tablespoons Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
- 3 1/2 cups (15.75 ounces) all-purpose flour*
- 1 teaspoon fine salt
- Filling
- 1 10-ounce package frozen raspberries
- 1/3 cup Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon fresh orange zest
- Icing
- 1/3 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
- *Spoon & Sweep method: Use a spoon to fill measuring cup with flour until required amount is obtained. Scooping measuring cup directly into flour bag will firmly pack flour resulting in too much flour required for recipe.
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°F.1
- For the dough: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, add all the dough ingredients and stir until combined. Turn mixer on medium speed and knead for 5 minutes, or until smooth. Remove dough to a floured work surface, cover, and let rest for 10 minutes.2
- For the filling: In a medium bowl toss frozen raspberries with sugar, cornstarch and orange zest.
