Ingredients
Whole milk
Granulated sugar
Instant or active dry yeast
Unsalted butter (1/2 cup melted for dough; 1/4 cup softened for filling; 2 tbsp cold for topping)
Large eggs
Bread flour (plus more for dusting)
Kosher salt (1 tsp + 1/4 tsp, divided)
Salted butter (1/4 cup, softened for filling)
Dark brown sugar (1 cup for filling; 1/4 cup for topping)
Peach preserves
Ground cinnamon (2 tbsp for cinnamon roll filling; 1/2 tsp for topping)
Cream cheese (4 oz block-style, softened)
Powdered sugar
Vanilla bean paste or extract (1 tsp for icing; 1 tbsp for topping)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C)
Combine warm milk, granulated sugar, and yeast; let sit 5 minutes
Mix melted unsalted butter, eggs, 1 tsp kosher salt, 1/2 cup melted butter, and 3.75 cups bread flour for the dough
Cover and refrigerate overnight for cold rise
Knead dough until smooth
Roll into 12-inch square sheet
Create filling by mixing softened unsalted butter, 1 cup dark brown sugar, 2 tbsp ground cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp kosher salt
Spread filling on dough
Roll vertically into logs and cut into 12 rolls
Place in a greased 9×13-inch pan and let rise 1 hour
Bake 30 minutes until golden
Prepare topping by sautéing 1/2 cup fresh peaches, 1 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tbsp water, 2 tbsp cold unsalted butter, 1/4 cup dark brown sugar, and 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Pour compote over rolls, then crumble shortbread cookies made with remaining ingredients
Wait 10 minutes and top with cream cheese icing
Notes
Alternatively use day-old bread thoroughly kneaded into fresh dough
Shortbread topping might need additional flour to adjust
Cover and refrigerate overnight to expedite morning assembly
Icing and topping strides best on still-warm rolls for better coating
Storage: Refrigerate rolls tightly wrapped for up to 2 days before adding toppings
