I made this for New Year's breakfast earlier this year and can attest to how truly easy it is to put together, despite how difficult and impressive it looks. And I'll offer the substitution I made in order to make it for breakfast with an overnight refrigerator rise. . . stovetop chunky "applesauce" filling (you decide how much sugar to add) instead of eggy cinnamon-sugar. *Definitely* held together and tightened up with a Boiled Cider/cornstarch slurry as, like you said, you don't want a weeping, liquidy filling oozing out overnight (as well as making it taste so much better!). It rose up beautifully overnight in the fridge with no weeping, and baked up perfectly the next morning (adding a little extra baking time due to the cold from the fridge). It was a bit like having apple pie for breakfast instead of cinnamon rolls, which works just as well for me!
