Combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a large bowl.

Heat milk until warm, then add to the dry ingredients along with melted butter and eggs.

Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface until smooth, about 8-10 minutes.

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

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Roll out the dough into long strips, about 1 inch wide.

Wrap the strips around a greased wooden cylinder or rolling pin.

Brush the dough with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before removing from the cylinder.

Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm.
