Lisa's Filled Yeast Loaves

If you have company staying the night, and you want to make a seriously delicious breakfast...you gotta try these. "Lisa" is my Aunt Lisa--another great cook in my family. Her filled yeast loaves are a danish that will feed about 10 people. Remember to start it the night before, so that your bread will have time to rise. You'll also need to let the dough rise in the morning, so aim for a late breakfast. My friends and I spent the weekend at a cabin recently and I made these. It was a great start to a relaxing Saturday. Serve these with some fresh fruit and, as my mom likes to say, you'll be the hostess with mostest, guaranteed.

Bread 
8 ounces sour cream
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup melted butter
2 packages dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water
2 eggs, beaten
4 cups plain flour (might need 1/2 cup or more for altitude adjustment)

In a sauce pan, heat sour cream over low heat. Stir in sugar, salt and butter. Cool to lukewarm. Meanwhile, sprinkle the yeast over warm water and let dissolve, stir if needed. Add this to sour cream mixture and combine with beaten eggs and flour. Mix well. Cover tightly. Refrigerate overnight.

Filling
8 ounces cream cheese (room temperature, cut into chunks)
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg, beaten
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla

Mix all of the above together. Take the dough out and divide into four equal parts. Roll each into a rectangle that measure approximately 12"x8".  Spread 1/4 of filling on each of the rectangles. Leave edges clear of filling. Roll into a jelly roll. Tuck ends under.

Place on cook sheet, seam side down. Repair any tares that may occur. Use a spatula and make angular slits across the top of each roll. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double in size (30min - an hour). Bake for 15 minutes, (until light brown) at 375 degrees.

Glaze
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon milk
1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix well in a small bowl. Pour over each roll after they bake. Serve immediately.
