Directions

["In a small saucepan, scald the milk by heating it over medium heat until bubbles form around the edges. Cut the butter into small pieces and put it into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, along with the sugar and salt. Pour the hot milk into the bowl with the butter and stir around to melt the butter.", "Next pour the water into a medium sized bowl and sprinkle the yeast over the top and allow to sit until foamy about 3-4 minutes.", "Test the temperature of the milk mixture, if it is warm but not hot, add the eggs and the yeast and stir around to combine. With the mixer running start adding the flour, one cup at a time until the dough comes together and pulls away from the edges of the bowl. Knead for about 3-4 minutes, you want the dough to be smooth and stretchy but a little bit sticky at the same time.", "Once it is done kneading, move the dough to a buttered bowl and cover with a clean tea towel and allow to rise until doubled. I like to turn my oven on to the lowest setting, about 200\u00b0F and then turn it off and set the bowl on the top of the oven so it has nice warm cozy place to rise. This should take about 2 hours, unless of course you live at high altitude - if so, mine was ready after an hour.", "Once the dough is ready, punch it down and then prepare the topping.", "In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the sugars, honey and cinnamon and stir until smooth. Add the pecans and the vanilla extract and remove from heat.", "Next take 2 muffin trays and spray each cup with cooking spray and put a little of the topping into each muffin cup and set aside.", "Then prepare the dough filling by melting a stick of butter in a small bowl and get out the brown sugar and the cinnamon.", "Next take half of the dough and roll out into a rectangle on a lightly floured surface until it's about 1/8\" thick. Then pour half of the melted butter all over the dough and spread evenly around with a pastry brush. Generously sprinkle cinnamon and brown sugar all over and then starting at one long end of the dough
