Ingredients

Scale

4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
1 cup warm milk (110°F)
1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
2 large eggs (room temperature)
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup brown sugar

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine warm milk and sugar. Sprinkle with yeast; let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy. Stir in melted butter, eggs, and salt.
Gradually mix in flour until a soft dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for about 8–10 minutes until smooth.
Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour or until doubled.
For the filling, mix brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.
Roll out the dough into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick and spread with softened butter. Sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Roll tightly into a log, slice into equal pieces, place in a greased baking dish, and let rise for another 30 minutes while preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown. Drizzle with icing made from powdered sugar mixed with milk.
