Activate yeast in warm milk until bubbly, about 5 minutes.

Mix flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.

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

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

Spread softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle with cinnamon, sugar, chocolate chips, and walnuts.

Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut into equal pieces.

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

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Bake the rolls until golden brown, about 25-30 minutes.

Mix powdered sugar with water to create a glaze.

Drizzle the glaze over the warm buns before serving.
