Instructions
- Combine water and yeast in a large bowl, stir until dissolved, and let it set for 3-5 minutes until foamy.
- In a microwaveable bowl, combine sugar, whole milk, salt, powdered milk, vanilla extract, and butter. Heat until the butter melts but is not hot enough to kill the yeast.
- Pour the cooled butter and milk mixture into the yeast mixture, add eggs, and stir well.
- Gradually add flour, mixing until the dough is sticky. Knead for a minute or two and let rise covered in a warm place for 1½-2 hours until doubled.
- Make the cinnamon sugar mixture by combining sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Punch down the dough and roll it into a 1-inch thick rectangle on a floured surface.
- Brush the dough with melted butter, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, and roll it up tightly.
- Slice the roll into 12 pieces and place them in a greased baking pan. Let rise for about 45 minutes.
- Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Cool for about 5 minutes.
- For the glaze, whip cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until creamy. Drizzle over warm rolls before serving.
