Ingredients
Dough
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 4 cups all-purpose flour*, divided
- 1 envelope quick rise yeast
- 1/4 cup Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Cinnamon Sugar Topping
- 1 1/4 cups Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
- 2 1/2 tablespoons cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Glaze
