Instructions

                            • Make the Dough

                              • Step 1: Using a stand mixer, combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.
                              • Step 2: Mix in butter until well incorporated.
                              • Step 3: Add eggs and mix to combine.
                              • Step 4: Pour in warm water and continue mixing until dough is formed. Add more flour if needed. You do not want the dough to be super sticky.
                              • Step 5: Cover with a towel and let rise for 15 minutes.
                              • Step 6: Combine all filling ingredients in a small bowl using a spoon.

                            • Assembly

                                • Step 1: Use a rolling pin or glass to roll out the dough on a floured surface. You want a consistent thickness around 1/2 inch.
                                • Step 2: Spread the filling mixture onto the dough. Make sure you go all the way to the edges.
                                • Step 3: Roll up the dough into a log.
                                • Step 4: Slice the log to create individual rolls. I made 12, but you can go bigger or smaller to create the amount you want.
                                • Step 5: Place the rolls on a cookie sheet.
                                • Step 6: Preheat your smoker and set the temperature to 350 degrees.
                                • Step 7: Cook at 350°F for 45 minutes until golden brown.
                                • Step 8: Combine all glaze ingredients in a small bowl.
                                • Step 9: Drizzle on rolls and top with diced bacon.
                                • Step 10: Enjoy!
