Ingredients:

1 cup of milk + one stick of butter (100 grams unsalted). Warm together in the microwave or in a saucepan.

1 stick of unsalted butter (room temperature)

1 cup sugar

2 teaspoons cinnamon

Mix together until smoothened combined.

2. Add the yeast mixture while mixing.

3. Add the eggs one by one while mxing

4. Add the milk butter mixture while mixing

6. Let the dough rise.
