Techniques
- 1 cup warm milk
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup melted butter
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 whole room temperature eggs
- 4½ cup flour
- ½ cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2½ tbsp cinnamon
Warm the milk, no more than 110F or it kills the yeast; add sugar and a packet of active dry yeast.
Activating the yeast in warm milk
Mix melted butter, salt and room-temperature eggs; add the milk and yeast mixture; add flour gradually.
Heat the oven on its lowest setting about 15 minutes, turn it off, and rise the dough inside until doubled in size.
Roll the dough to roughly a quarter of an inch; spread butter over the whole surface; sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture.
Roll it up and cut into rolls an inch to just under an inch thick.

Make the cream cheese frosting: butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, sour cream and a pinch of salt (made the day before).
The cream cheese frosting
Bake at 200C for 20 to 25 minutes, judging by colour: not too light, not too golden.
