Ingredients

• 1/2 C salted butter (melted)

• 1/2 C granulated sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 C water (room temperature)
• 2 large eggs

Instructions

1. Grease a 9" x 13" baking pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup of butter with milk.
3. In the bowl of a stand mixer, add 2 1/2 cups of flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Add water, eggs and butter mixture. Using the flat beater attachment, mix until well combined. Add the remaining flour 1/2 cup at a time while mixing until the dough starts to form a ball.

• 2 C light brown sugar
• 2 Tbsp cinnamon
• 1 C salted butter (softened)

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, and softened butter together. Set aside.
2. Roll out the dough to form a long rectangle, about 3' x 2'. Spread the filling across the whole surface of the dough.
3. Start at the short end of the dough and roll it up like a jelly roll. Make a cut in the center of the roll, then cut about 6" from the center on each side to form two giant rolls.
4. Place the rolls swirled edge down on the prepared pan.
5. Drizzle the rolls with melted butter. Allow to rise at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
