  • Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help to develop the gluten and give the buns a chewy texture.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will take about 1-2 hours.
  • Roll out the dough into a rectangle and spread the cinnamon sugar filling evenly over it. Roll the dough up tightly, starting from one long edge and working your way to the other.
  • Cut the dough into 12 even pieces and place them in a greased baking dish. Let the buns rise again for 30 minutes.
  • Bake the buns in a preheated oven until they are golden brown and cooked through. This will take about 25-30 minutes.
  • While the buns are baking, make the glaze. Combine the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a bowl and whisk until smooth.
  • Pour the glaze over the warm buns as soon as they come out of the oven.
