Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of flour, sugar, salt, and yeast.
Add warm milk, warm water, melted butter, and egg. Mix until combined.
Add remaining flour gradually and knead until a soft dough forms, about 5–7 minutes.
Fold in rainbow sprinkles gently into the dough.
Cover and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Roll dough into a rectangle on a floured surface.
Spread softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle with a mixture of brown sugar and cinnamon.
Roll the dough tightly and slice into 9–12 rolls.
Place rolls in a greased baking dish, cover, and let rise for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
Mix powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk to make the glaze.
Drizzle glaze over warm rolls and serve.

Notes

Add more or fewer sprinkles depending on your preference.
Make the dough the night before and bake fresh in the morning.
Use parchment paper for easy cleanup.
