Dough Preparation
1. Activate Yeast
In a small bowl, combine warm milk and sugar, sprinkle yeast over the top, and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
2. Make Dough
In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture, melted butter, and eggs. Stir until a dough forms.
3. Knead Dough
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. First Rise
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.

In a medium bowl, mix brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Melt the cup of butter and set aside.

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle (about 16x24 inches).
7. Add Filling
Spread the melted butter over the rolled-out dough, then evenly sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.

Starting from the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut into 12-15 equal pieces.

Place the rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, cover, and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.
