Mixer. Mix on speeds 1 to 2 until com- bined. Reserve.

3.In a separate small bowl, combine the milk, ¼ cup butter, egg and vanilla. It is important that all of the liquid ingredients be at room temperature. Mix on speeds 2 to 3 until just combined; reserve.

4.Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt to a mixing bowl. Mix on speed 2 until combined, about 10 seconds. With mixer running, slowly add the liquid ingre- dients. Gradually increase to speed 4 and mix until well combined, about

30 seconds. Mix for an additional

15 seconds.

5.Transfer dough to a heavily floured sur- face and knead a few times. Roll dough into a 12x9-inch rectangle. Sprinkle the reserved pecan filling on dough, leaving a ½-inch border. Carefully roll dough, starting from the bottom and working away from you, into a tight log (brush off excess flour). Cut into 8 equal pieces and put in the prepared baking pan; brush tops with the reserved melted butter.

6.Bake in the preheated oven for about

25 to 30 minutes, or until firm and golden in color.

7.While cinnamon rolls are baking, prepare the glaze. Put confectioners’ sugar, milk and vanilla in a small bowl. Using the hand mixer fitted with the chef’s whisk, whisk on speed 3 until well mixed with no lumps. Reserve until ready to use. You may have to whisk again right before using to smooth out the icing.

8.Let the cinnamon pecan rolls cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, and then trans-

fer to a cooling rack. Spoon the reserved icing over warm rolls.
