Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. In another bowl, whisk warm milk, melted butter, and egg until smooth. Mix into dry ingredients to form a soft dough.
Knead on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for about 60 minutes or until doubled in size.
Roll out the dough into a rectangle (12×18 inches) and spread softened butter over it. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over the buttered dough.
Roll the dough tightly from one long edge into a log shape. Cut in half lengthwise and twist together with cut sides up. Place in a greased loaf pan and let rise again for 30-45 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 190°F.
For the glaze, whisk powdered sugar with milk and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over cooled bread.
