Instructions

Prepare the candied bacon by cooking the bacon in a skillet until crispy, then tossing it with brown sugar, maple syrup, bourbon, and black pepper. Bake until caramelized.
Make the tangzhong by whisking flour and water in a saucepan over medium heat until thickened. Let it cool.
In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Add milk, egg, butter, and the cooled tangzhong. Knead until smooth.
Let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
Roll out the dough and spread softened butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and crumbled bacon on top.
Roll the dough tightly and slice into rolls. Place in a baking dish and let rise again.
Bake the rolls until golden brown.
Prepare the bourbon maple frosting by mixing butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, bourbon, and maple syrup until smooth.
Drizzle the frosting over the warm rolls and top with reserved candied bacon strips.

Notes

For a stronger bourbon flavor, increase the amount of bourbon in the frosting.
Ensure the bacon is crispy for the best texture in the rolls.
These rolls are best served warm.
