Ingredients 

Dough

  • 4 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 packet Active dry yeast
  • 1 cup Milk Warm
  • ½ cup Sugar
  • ⅓ cup Butter Melted
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 pc Egg Large

Filling

  • ½ cup Butter Softened
  • 1 cup Brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoon Cinnamon

Instructions 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of flour and yeast.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat milk, sugar, butter, and salt until warm (120°F to 130°F) and butter is almost melted.
  3. Add milk mixture to flour mixture; add egg. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Then beat on high speed for 3 minutes.
  4. Stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can. Knead in enough remaining flour to make a moderately soft dough that is smooth and elastic (3 to 5 minutes total).
  5. Shape dough into a ball. Place in a greased bowl; turn once. Cover; let rise in a warm place until double in size (about 1 hour).
  6. Punch dough down. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Cover; let rest for 10 minutes.
  7. Roll dough into a 12x8-inch rectangle. Spread with softened butter. Combine brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over buttered dough.
  8. Roll up from a long side; seal seam. Slice into 12 pieces. Place in a greased baking dish. Cover; let rise until nearly double (about 30 minutes).
  9. Bake in a 375°F oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly.
