        \u00a0Instructions<\/h2>\n

        Step 1: Make the Dough<\/h3>\n

        In a large mixing bowl, combine:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Flour<\/li>\n
        • Instant yeast<\/li>\n
        • Granulated sugar<\/li>\n
        • Salt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Mix well.<\/p>\n

          Add the warm milk, melted butter, and egg. Stir until a soft dough forms.<\/p>\n

          Step 2: Knead the Dough<\/h3>\n

          Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 8\u201310 minutes<\/strong>, until smooth, soft, and elastic. Add small amounts of flour if the dough feels too sticky.<\/p>\n

          Form into a ball.<\/p>\n

          Step 3: First Rise<\/h3>\n

          Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, turning once to coat the top. Cover with a clean towel or plastic wrap.<\/p>\n

          Let rise in a warm place for 1 hour<\/strong>, or until doubled in size.<\/p>\n

          Step 4: Prepare the Filling<\/h3>\n

          In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together. Set aside.<\/p>\n

          Step 5: Roll and Fill<\/h3>\n

          Punch down the dough and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle, about 12\u00d716 inches<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

          Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly on top.<\/p>\n

          Step 6: Shape the Bites<\/h3>\n

          Roll the dough tightly from the long side into a log. Cut into 1-inch pieces<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

          Place the pieces cut-side up into a greased baking dish or lined baking pan, leaving a little space between each one.<\/p>\n

          Step 7: Second Rise<\/h3>\n

          Cover the pan and let the cinnamon roll bites rise for 20\u201330 minutes<\/strong>, until puffy.<\/p>\n

          Step 8: Bake<\/h3>\n

          Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

          Bake for 15\u201318 minutes<\/strong>, or until lightly golden and cooked through.<\/p>\n

          Step 9: Make the Glaze<\/h3>\n

          While the bites are baking, whisk together:<\/p>\n

            \n
          • Powdered sugar<\/li>\n
          • Milk<\/li>\n
          • Vanilla extract<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Adjust milk for desired thickness.<\/p>\n

            Step 10: Glaze and Serve<\/h3>\n

            Remove the cinnamon roll bites from the oven and drizzle the glaze over them while still warm.<\/p>\n

            Serve immediately.<\/p>\n

            • Sprinkle with chopped nuts<\/li>\n
