Steps

1

In a stand mixer combine warm milk, yeast, sugar, salt, butter, and egg. Add in flour. Using a dough hook, turn the mixer on low speed.
2

Once flour starts to incorporate into the dough, increase the speed to medium. Add more flour if necessary so that dough pulls away from the side of the bowl. The dough mixture should be tacky, but not stick to your hands. It should be soft.
3

Transfer dough to a lightly greased mixing bowl. Cover with a towel and let rise until double in size, about an hour.
4

Lightly grease a baking sheet. Punch down the dough and roll into a 12 x 18 rectangle.
5

Brush the dough with 1/2 cup melted butter. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle on top of the melted butter. Roll up tightly lengthwise so you have one long roll. Use sharp knife to cut dough into 12 one inch slices.
6

Place the slices onto a lightly greased 9 x 13. Cover and let rise 30 to 45 minutes.
7

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bake the rolls about 23 minutes, until just kissed with brown on top.
8

While cinnamon rolls are baking, make the cream cheese glaze by using a hand mixer to whip together cream cheese and butter in a bowl until light and fluffy. Whip in powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Add enough milk to achieve drizzle like consistency. Frost rolls while warm.
