Step-by-Step Instructions
- Activate the yeast by warming the milk and mixing it with sugar and yeast. Let it sit until frothy.
- Mix dry ingredients (flour and salt) in a large bowl. Make a well in the center.
- Combine wet ingredients (butter, eggs, bourbon, yeast mixture) and pour into the well. Mix until rough dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
- Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Prepare filling by mixing brown sugar, cinnamon, and crumbled bacon in a bowl.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick.
- Spread softened butter over dough evenly.
- Sprinkle filling over the buttered dough, pressing down gently.
- Roll the dough into a tight log and pinch to seal.
- Slice the log into 12 equal pieces and place in a greased baking dish cut side up.
- Cover and allow rolls to rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) while rolls are rising.
- Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
