2. In a large bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer, add the eggs, sugar and vanilla. Whisk together until combined.
3. Add yeast mixture to the egg mixture and whisk until incorporated.
4. In medium bowl whisk together flour, and salt.
5. Slowly add half the flour and mix with a large spoon or the paddle attachment for your stand mixer. The dough will be very sticky.
6. Add melted butter and continue mixing.
7. Finish adding the rest of the flour and knead the dough with your hands on a floured surface or use the hook attachment on the mixer.

10. Allow the dough to double in size. Around 1 1/2 hours.

12. Once the dough has doubled, punch dough down and roll out on a floured surface.
13. Divide the dough into 8 pieces with a pizza cutter.
14. Cut each piece into 6 more pieces.
15. Dip pieces 4 at a time into the melted butter.
16. Coat pieces in cinnamon/sugar mixture and place in muffin tins.
17. Each muffin tin should have four pieces. Three on the bottom and one sitting on top.
18. Bake for 14-15 minutes until tops of muffins start to brown.
19. Let cool in pan for 5 minutes before removing muffins. Make the glaze.
20. In a medium bowl add the powdered sugar and a couple teaspoons of milk.
