Instructions
Combine yeast with water that has been warmed to 105-115℉ and let yeast dissolve for 5 minutes.
Add yeast water to bowl of stand up mixer. Add sugar, salt, milk, 1/2 cup softened butter to mixer and mix well. Gradually add 3 cups flour and eggs one at a time. Continue mixing until mixture is well combined.
Mix in remaining 3 cups flour gradually until mixture pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
Knead dough 3-4 minutes on a floured board. Add additional flour at this time as needed if sticky.
Mix cinnamon and sugar together in a small bowl. Set aside
Roll out dough on a floured surface into an oblong rectangle. Spread with softened butter leaving a 1/2 inch around the border. Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar mixture over the buttered dough areas.
Roll up the dough the long way. Using thread or string cut rolls 1 inch thick and place in greased pan 3/4-1 inch apart. Brush tops with oil and cover loosely with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator.
Next Day
Remove from refrigerator 4 hours ahead of baking time. Rolls should double in size.
Preheat oven to 375℉. Bake 20-30 minutes or until rolls are golden brown around the edges.
While rolls are baking, make frosting. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well. Frost rolls while hot.
Notes
Rather than placing rolls in fridge, you can let dough rise right away and then bake.
