Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast in a large bowl with warm milk, granulated sugar, melted butter, salt, and eggs. Mix well and add flour gradually until a soft dough forms.
  2. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Let it rise in a greased bowl covered with a cloth for about 1 hour.

  6. Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into equal rolls, placing them in a greased baking dish to rise again for 30 minutes.
  7. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Prepare the glaze by mixing powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  9. Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls and serve fresh.
