Instructions: Combine milk, butter, sugar, and salt. Cool to lukewarm. Soften yeast in water. Stir and combine with milk mixture; add about 3 cups flour. Add eggs and vanilla. Beat well. Add enough of remaining flour to make a soft dough. Mix thoroughly. Turn out on a lightly floured surface and knead about 10 minutes or until smooth and satiny. Place in warm greased bowl. Brush surface lightly with melted butter. Cover and let rise about two hours or until double in bulk. Shape into rolls by rolling out into a rectangle. Spread softened butter on dough.

Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Roll as for jelly roll. Slice into about 1 inch pieces and lay on sides on greased pan. Let rise half to one hour. Bake 15-20 minutes at 375. Watch closely for bottom burning. Sugar will cause to burn faster on bottoms.

For glaze: Mix a very small amount of milk (1 tsp. to 1 Tbsp.) with powdered sugar until EXTREMELY stiff. Drizzle or spread on hot rolls. Will melt and run down sides, etc.
