A gourmet looking dessert that actually takes very little effort but always provides delicious results.
Using pre-made frozen roll dough from Rhodes Bake n Serv, these rolls are simple to do. Rhodes rolls can defrost and rise on the countertop quickly. However, Rhodes also has an overnight defrost and rise method that makes these sweet buns a perfect freshly baked breakfast option!
Cream Filled Rolls
These sweet buns are simple to make and I’ve created a graphic that shows the step by step below. Here a couple quick notes regarding these steps.
Egg Wash
An egg wash is a mixture of beaten egg and milk that is brushed onto baked goods prior to the actual baking. The purpose of the egg wash is 3 fold:
- An egg wash helps seals up the edges of the pastry. In this case it’s important so you can get that nice puffy roll that holds it’s shape even as it cools.
- The egg wash adds color. Leaving the rolls without an egg wash can lead to a crust that looks pale and doughy. Egg yolk provides rich color, browning easily in the oven.
- Shine. Egg whites provide a nice sheen, giving your rolls a professional looking shine.
Creme filling for sweet buns
The cream filling can be as light and simple or as intense and flavorful as you desire. Some fun options include:
- Whipped cream or cool whip
- Chocolate pudding
- Whipped cream mixed with cream cheese or with raspberry jam, or both!
- Chocolate hazelnut cream
Dipping Chocolate
I use the chocolate that’s sold in stores specifically for dipping cookies, breads, and fruits into. However, I still add a little but of oil to the chocolate for a smoother melt.

- Then using scissors or a thin knife, poke a hole in the bottom of the rolls. Using your finger, reach inside and push roll around to create a larger center cavity.
- Using a icing bag with tip: pipe the cream filling into the center.
