Dough

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy. Add the melted butter, eggs, and salt. Gradually stir in the flour until a dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Filling

    In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Roll Out the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.

  5. 5

    Add Filling

    Spread the softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly on top.

  6. 6

    Form the Rolls

    Starting from the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut into 9 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking pan.

  7. 7

    Second Rise

    Cover the rolls with a towel and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes.

  8. 8

    Bake the Buns

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the buns for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

  9. 9

    Make the Frosting

    While the buns are baking, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  10. 10

    Frost and Serve

    Once the buns are out of the oven and slightly cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting over the top. Serve warm.
