Steps:
- Combine the 4 tablespoons water, yeast and 1 tablespoon sugar. Allow to proof for about 15 minutes in warm place covered with plastic wrap or a damp towel.
- Mix remaining wet ingredients for dough in mixer (or by hand). Add yeast mixture. Mix till combined.
- Switch whisk attachment w/ the dough hook or knead by hand. Slowly mix in the flour with the dough hook, on a low speed. Once flour is more or less blended, knead at a high speed till it forms a sort of ball around the dough hook.
- Put in large greased and/or lightly floured bowl. Cover & let rise in warm place till doubled in size (about 30-40 minutes- don't leave longer, even not yet doubled).
- Remove the dough, and knead for 3 to 5 minutes. Roll out to a large rectangle.
- Mix together the softened butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Spread over dough. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts and raisins, if desired. Starting with the widest end, roll the dough into a log. Pinch to seal seams. Cut into 1/2 inch to 1 inch slices, and place in a greased 9x13 inch pan. (This is the point where they can be placed in the fridge until morning. If doing so, just place a large pan of boiling water in the oven (near the bottom) and put the pan of rolls in above it. Within 30 minutes or so, they will rise and you will be ready to bake them.) Place in a draft-free space, and allow to rise until doubled.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. To make frosting, mix the milk, confectioners sugar, softened butter and vanilla in a small bowl. Spread over warm cinnamon rolls.

Tips:
- Use fresh yeast that is active and bubbly. If you are unsure if your yeast is active, you can test it by dissolving it in a small amount of warm water with a pinch of sugar. If the yeast is active, it will start to foam and bubble within a few minutes.
- Make sure your butter and milk are at room temperature before you start making the dough. This will help the dough to come together more easily and will result in a softer, more tender cinnamon bun.
- Don't over-knead the dough. Over-kneading will make the dough tough and chewy. Knead the dough just until it is smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will take about 1-2 hours. You can also let the dough rise overnight in the refrigerator. If you do this, be sure to take it out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature before shaping and baking.
- Roll the dough out into a rectangle and spread with a generous amount of cinnamon sugar. You can also add other fillings, such as raisins, nuts, or chocolate chips.
- Roll the dough up tightly and slice it into individual cinnamon buns. Place the cinnamon buns in a greased baking dish and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes.
- Bake the cinnamon buns in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the cinnamon buns warm with a drizzle of icing or glaze.
Conclusion:
Cinnamon buns are a classic breakfast pastry that is enjoyed by people of all ages. They are soft, moist, and gooey, with a delicious cinnamon sugar filling. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make your own cinnamon buns at home. So next time you are looking for a special treat, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
