Instructions
- Combine 2 cups flour, sugar, dry yeast and salt in a large mixer bowl and stir until blended.
- Combine milk, water and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH in 15 second increments until very warm but not hot to the touch (120° to 130°F. Butter won’t melt completely).
- Add to flour mixture with egg. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally.
- Add 1 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed, scraping bowl occasionally.
- Stir in just enough remaining flour so that the dough will form into a ball.
- Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic and dough springs back when lightly pressed with 2 fingers, about 6 to 8 minutes.
- Cover with a towel; let rest for 10 minutes. For filling, combine sugars and cinnamon in a shallow bowl
- Cut dough into 36 pieces.
- Dip each piece into the melted butter and then roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Place in fluted tube pan that has been generously sprayed with cooking spray.
- Sprinkle pecans in between each layer of dough balls.
- Combine any remaining butter and sugar and drizzle over rolls.
- Cover with towel; let rise in warm place until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
- Bake in preheated 375ºF oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until rolls are golden brown.
- Cool 5 minutes in pan, then invert on serving plate.
- Prepare the Frosting: In a medium bowl with an electric mixer, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Add in vanilla and 1 tablespoon of milk, beating until well combined. Gradually add more milk, one teaspoon at a time until desired consistency is reached. Drizzle icing over warm pull-apart bread. Serve immediately.
