2 ¼ tsp instant yeast (1 standard packet)
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tsp fine salt
¾ cup whole milk, warmed to 110°f (43°c)
1 large egg
2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened

For the butter block (lamination)

1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, cold

For the cinnamon filling

½ cup packed light brown sugar
1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp fine salt
2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened

For the glaze

4 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
3–4 tbsp whole milk
½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine the flour, instant yeast, granulated sugar, and salt. Add the warmed milk and egg, then mix on low speed until a shaggy dough forms, about 2 minutes. Add the 2 tbsp softened butter and increase to medium speed, kneading until the dough is smooth, slightly tacky, and pulls cleanly from the sides of the bowl, about 6–8 minutes.
2
Shape the dough into a ball, place it in a lightly oiled bowl, and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight — the cold, slow rise develops flavor and makes the dough easier to laminate.
