Making Coconut Cinnamon Rolls
- Warm the milk gently to 104°F (40°C).
- Combine the warm milk, yeast, and granulated sugar in a bowl. Allow it to sit until frothy, about 5-10 minutes.
- Mix the all-purpose flour, bread flour, salt, and ground spices in a separate bowl.
- Cream together the softened butter and eggs until fully combined and smooth.
- Combine the yeast mixture with the butter and egg mixture, then gradually add the dry ingredients until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl and let it rise until doubled in size, 1-2 hours.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface and spread the sweetened condensed milk mixture evenly over it.
- Sprinkle the sweetened shredded coconut all over the dough before rolling it up tightly.
- Cut the rolled dough into 9 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking dish, leaving space for expansion.
- Cover the rolls and let them rise until puffy, about 30-45 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the rolls until golden brown, about 25-30 minutes.
- Prepare the frosting by mixing powdered sugar, cream cheese, milk, and almond extract until smooth.
- Frost the warm rolls generously and top with toasted shredded coconut before serving.
