Mix warm milk and sugar in a bowl until dissolved.

Sprinkle yeast over the milk mixture and let it sit until frothy, about 5-10 minutes.

In a large bowl, combine flour and salt, then create a well in the center.

Add melted butter, eggs, and the yeast mixture into the well.

Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Roll out the dough into a rectangle on a floured surface.

Spread softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar evenly.

Roll the dough tightly into a log, then slice into equal pieces.

Place the slices in a greased baking dish, cover, and let rise for another 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

Mix powdered sugar with water to create a glaze.

Drizzle the glaze over warm rolls before serving.
