Make the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the warm milk, sugar, and melted butter. The mixture should be just warm.

Sprinkle yeast evenly over milk mixture, stir, and let sit in a warm place for about 10 mins until the yeast has bloomed.

Add 4 cups flour to milk mixture and stir with spoon until just combined.

Cover bowl with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, until nearly doubled in size.

Generously butter pan(s).

Make the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon. Mix well, then set aside.

Remove the plastic wrap from the dough and add remaining cup of flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir well, then put on a clean surface. Leave some flour nearby to use as needed, but try not to incorporate too much.

Knead the dough for at least 10 mins, adding flour when necessary, until dough loses stickiness. The dough should be very smooth and spring back when poked.

Roll the dough out into a large rectangle, about ½-inch thick.

Spread the filling evenly over the dough.

Starting from one short end, roll up the dough into a log and pinch the seam closed.

Cut the log into even pieces, about 1½ inches thick. Place the rolls in the prepared pan(s). Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place for 35-45 minutes, until expanded by about half of their original volume.

Preheat the oven to 350˚F.

Bake the cinnamon rolls for 25-30 mins, until golden brown.

While the cinnamon rolls are baking, make the frosting: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and whisk until homogenous and runny.

When the cinnamon rolls are finished, let cool for about 10 mins.

Drizzle the frosting over the cinnamon rolls. Enjoy!
