Instructions:
1. Make the Cinnamon Roll Dough:
In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and granulated sugar in warm milk. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Add the yeast mixture and stir until well combined.
Gradually add the flour and salt to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl and cover it with a clean kitchen towel. Let it rise in a warm place for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
