Sorry to say, but your plan doesn't works. Black can play g6; but even he/she follow your way, he/she can play 3-Be3 after 3.Ref1.

first move is Re7
i try to calculate the best reply from black..
1. Re7 Bxe7
2. Qxf7+ Kh8
3. Rxe7 Qg4
4. Re8+ Rxe8
5. Qxe8+ Kh7
6. Bg8+ Kh8
7. Bf7+ Kh7
8. Qg8# ( white needs 8 moves.. )
black can avoid this mate in early move but he will lose material...
Black don't have to take on e7. Better reply are g6, but still Re7 are a great move. Maybe the best one, but white can win with other moves as well

1. Bxf7+ Qxf7
2. Re8+ Qf8
3. Rxf8+ Rxf8
is the best I can see but it's not immediately finishing the game.
Nice! 1Bxf7+ Qxf7 2Re8+ Rxe8 3Rxe8 Qf8 4Rxf8+ (this motif is X-ray attack).1Re7 line (this motif is line interruption).But it's still more moves that can make progress for white and maybe win the game.
i think that 1. Re7 was the best..
when 1. Re7 g6 2. Qf3 this also result the same.. and maybe 2 ... g6 open the line and make black's defense more weak..
if 1. Bxf7 Kh7 black still on the game..
u forgot rook on d6..
