3. To make the cream cheese filling, beat together the cream cheese, butter and sugar until smooth.
Stir in the vanilla. Toss the raspberries in the cornstarch right before rolling out the dough***.
4. Roll the dough into an 10 by 18 inch rectangle. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough
with a butter knife. Sprinkle with the raspberries and roll up tightly starting on the short edge.

her notes: *Increased yeast (a bit)
*Instant yeast went into flour not warm milk.
**Creamed: Sugar & Butter, added salt, egg, then added warm milk.
Switched to paddle (I have a Bosch) and added flour (which had instant yeast already in it).
***Crumbled frozen raspberries and added a couple tablespoons of sugar with the cornstarch.
*Took a long time to rise due to frozen berries. I covered with plastic &
towel and set on warm oven. Or you could heat oven to 200 - shut it off - leave door open
and put covered rolls inside to rise.
* fit into 1 - 12” round pan (lined with parchment paper)
* Baked at 375 (convection); 18-20 minutes.
Also: I froze some on cookie sheets after they were rolled and cut.
Took a few out before going to bed and let them rise in pan (covered with plastic) over night on counter.
Baked in the morning as per instructions
