📝 Preparation Steps
1
Make the Dough:
2
Place eggnog in a microwave safe measuring cup. Heat for ⏱️ 30 seconds in the microwave, until it reaches between 100-110°F. You want it to be like very warm bathwater. (The time you heat it will need to be adjusted depending on your microwave.) Add yeast and stir. Let it sit for a few minutes until the yeast blooms.
3
Place sugar, butter, salt, and egg in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix until the butter is distributed throughout the liquids, although it may be chunky. Pour in the eggnog/yeast mixture and stir for a few seconds.
(7g) active dry yeast (2 ¼ teaspoons)1 package(42g) unsalted butter (, softened)3 tablespoonslarge egg1(372g) all-purpose flour (plus more for dusting)3 cups(28g) unsalted butter (, melted)2 tablespoons
4
Add flour and stir with the paddle attachment just until the mixture starts to stick to the paddle. Then replace the paddle with the dough hook. Continue mixing on low speed until the dough forms a ball in the center of the bowl. If dough is still very sticky, you can add an additional ¼ cup of flour.
5
Spray a large bowl with cooking spray and place the dough ball in it. Spray the top of the dough ball with cooking spray (lightly) and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let sit for ⏱️ 2-4 hours until it doubles in size. Note on rising: if your house is warm, it should rise no problem. If it’s cold in your house, it may take longer for the dough to rise.

Prepare Rolls:
7
Stir together brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
(7g) active dry yeast (2 ¼ teaspoons)1 package(42g) unsalted butter (, softened)3 tablespoons(372g) all-purpose flour (plus more for dusting)3 cupscinnamon1 tablespoon(28g) unsalted butter (, melted)2 tablespoons
8
Once the dough is risen, roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle, about 10” by 14”. Spread with melted butter and sprinkle with filling.
9
Roll the dough up tightly from the long end. Slice it into 12 equal rounds. Place the rolls into a 9x13” baking dish that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
10
Cover the rolls with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight or allow to rise until puffed, approximately ⏱️ 1-2 hours in a warm place.
11
When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350°F. If chilled, remove the rolls from the refrigerator and let them warm up to room temperature while the oven is preheating. Remove the plastic wrap and bake for ⏱️ 23-28 minutes, or until they are golden brown.

Frosting:
