Cooking : Blueberry Pinwheels

Ingredients
2 (5 ounce) cans evaporated milk
6 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
2 cups fresh blueberries or frozen blueberries*
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon water

Directions
In a saucepan, heat milk and butter to 110 degrees F-115 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk mixture. Add the sugar, salt, egg and 2 cups flour; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form soft dough.
Turn onto floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/4 hours. Punch dough down. Turn onto a floured surface; divide in half. Roll each into a 14-in. x 8-in. rectangle; brush with melted butter. Combine sugar, cinnamon and lemon peel; sprinkle over dough to within 1/2 in of edges. Top with blueberries; press into dough. Roll up, jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seam to seal. Cut each into 12 slices. Place, cut side down, in two greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1-1/4 hours. Bake at 375 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
For glaze, combine sugar, vanilla and enough water to achieve a desired consistency. Drizzle over warm rolls. Cool in pans on wire racks.
