Creating Irresistible Lemon Sweet Rolls can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine the warmed milk and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast on top and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
2. Make the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the activated yeast mixture, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Mix until a dough forms.
3. Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
5. Shape the Rolls: Once risen, punch down the dough to release air. Roll it out into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Spread a thin layer of melted butter on top.
6. Add Filling and Roll: Sprinkle more lemon zest and a mix of sugar on top. Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut it into 12 equal pieces.
7. Second Rise: Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, cover, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
8. Preheat Oven: While the rolls are rising, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
9. Bake: Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
10. Prepare the Glaze: While the rolls are baking, mix the powdered sugar with fresh lemon juice until smooth. Adjust the consistency as needed.
11. Glaze the Rolls: Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for about 10-15 minutes. Drizzle the lemon glaze over the warm rolls.

By following these steps, you’ll create a batch of Irresistible Lemon Sweet Rolls that are sure to impress!
