Blueberry Sweet Rolls
Blueberry Sweet Rolls are out of this world! These luscious sweet rolls use fresh blueberries in the filling and have a rich, buttercream frosting on top. They are absolutely sensational! These are perfect for weekend, company or holiday breakfasts. Because you don't have to hand-knead the dough, these are even easier to whip up. Every bite will knock your socks off!

Notes
NOTE: I warmed the half-and-half for one minute thirty seconds on 50% power in microwave.
NOTE: While I always use bread flour with recipes for bread or rolls, you can also use regular flour with good results.
NOTE: You can use any kind of yeast including bread machine yeast or regular yeast for this recipe (as long as it's Fleischmann's. Other brands do not work as well.
NOTE: Frozen or dried blueberries will also work in this recipe.
NOTE: I heat the oven for one minute and then turn off the heat to warm the rolls. (Place rolls uncovered in warmed oven). After 20 minutes, if the oven feels cold, I reheat for one more minute (while rolls are still in oven). I repeat this process every 20 minutes until the rolls have risen to the top of the baking dish. This usually takes between 1 1/2 and 2 hours.
