Instructions

Warm the milk to 110°F and sprinkle yeast on top; let it sit for 10 minutes.
Sift together flour, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.
Add heated milk, warmed eggnog, butter, and beaten eggs to the dry ingredients.
Knead until a tacky dough forms, about 5 minutes.
Let the dough rise in a warm oven for 1 hour until doubled in size.
Prepare the cinnamon filling by mixing butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
Roll the dough out into a rectangle and spread the filling evenly.
Roll dough into a log, cut into 12 slices, and let rise again for 20 minutes in a greased baking pan.
Preheat oven to 375°F and bake for 28-33 minutes until golden brown.
Make icing by mixing cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and eggnog until smooth.
Spread icing over warm rolls and serve.

Notes

Ensure the milk for the yeast is not too hot to avoid killing the yeast.
You can refrigerate the rolls overnight before baking them fresh in the morning.
Feel free to add nuts or chocolate chips in the filling for extra flavor.
