For the Dough:
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp. salt
- 2 1/4 tsp. active dry yeast
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 large egg
For the Filling:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tbsp. ground cinnamon
For the Glaze:
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
Make the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. In a small saucepan, heat the milk, water, and butter over low heat until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm to the touch (around 110°F).
Add the milk mixture and egg to the flour mixture and stir until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp towel, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Make the Filling:
In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until well combined.
Assemble the Rolls:
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle (about 16 x 12 inches).
Spread the filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Roll the dough up tightly, starting from the long side, and pinch the edges to seal.
Cut the rolled dough into 12 even slices using a sharp knife or a piece of dental floss. Place the slices in a greased 9 x 13 inch baking dish, cover with a damp towel, and let them rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 30 minutes, or until they are puffy and have doubled in size.
