Ingredients:  
1 1/2 tablespoons Active Dry Yeast
1 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 cup warm water 115 degrees F.
8 tablespoons 1stick unsalted melted butter
3/4 cup warmed whole milk or heavy cream 115 degrees F.
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
4 cups All-Purpose flour plus more for rolling out
1 tsp of salt

Directions:
Directions:
Place yeast and sugar into mixing bowl then add warm water and gently stir. Let sit until yeast has doubled, about 10 minutes. In a medium bowl, mix melted butter and warm milk. Add butter and milk mixture to yeast mixture. Mix with mixer on low speed then add sugar and egg mixing until combined. In a large bowl, stir together the flour and salt.
Add 2 cups of flour mixture to the mix at a time continuing to add remaining flour until the dough starts to clean sides of mixing bowl. Kneed dough 7-10minutes. Place dough onto a floured counter and kneed dough until it does not stick to your hands. Place dough into a large bowl that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a barely warm oven for 45-60 minutes, until dough doubles in size.
Remove dough from bowl and place onto a floured counter top. With a floured rolling pin, roll dough into an approximate 14x24 inch rectangle, about 1/4 inch in thickness. Spread softened butter over entire surface of dough. In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the brown sugar, sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over buttered dough. Starting at long end of dough, carefully roll into a log shape. Using dental floss or knife, cut rolls into 1 1/2 inch pieces.
Take 4 tablespoons softened butter and spread on bottom of 9x13 inch pan then sprinkle with brown sugar. Place 4 rolls per row close to each other, about 1/2 inch apart. Place into a barely warm oven (turn oven to warm for 5 minutes, then turn off right before placing rolls in oven to let rise) for 45-60 minutes or until rolls have doubled in size. Remove rolls from oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake rolls for 15-17 minutes or until rolls are golden brown and baked through. Set aside to cool slightly.
