Instructions

  • Make the Dough: In a large bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy. Add melted butter, egg, salt, and 3 cups of flour. Mix until combined, then knead until smooth, adding more flour as needed. Cover and let rise 1 hour.

  • Prepare Filling: In a small bowl, mix cream cheese with brown sugar and cinnamon until smooth.
