Instructions
Move oven rack to the center position and preheat oven to 350°F.
Whisk sugars, cinnamon, and vanilla into the melted butter—you should have a nice thick paste. If it looks too soupy/buttery, add a few more tablespoons of dark brown sugar.
Divide dough into two balls. On a generously floured surface, roll out each dough ball into a large rectangle about 1/4-inch thick. Use a pastry brush to completely coat the surface of the dough with your butter mixture.
If you're including bacon in your buns, lay out two strips of bacon horizontally about 1/2-inch from the long side of the dough that's closest to you, repeat with two more strips of bacon at the midpoint of your dough rectangle.
Roll up the dough along the short side so you have a long skinny roll. Use a serrated knife to cut 15 cinnamon coils from your roll and place them in baking dish.
Brush the buns with milk then bake until the tops are golden brown and crispy, about 30 to 40 minutes.
While the buns are baking, brown the butter for the icing in a saucepan over medium heat, swirling the pan every so often. Once the butter has browned, transfer it to the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
Let the butter cool slightly then beat butter with confectioner’s sugar and vanilla on medium high.
Add a little more sugar if your frosting looks too buttery. Cool the cinnamon buns for 5 minutes then frost and serve warm.
