For the dough, set up your standing mixer with the dough hook or prepare your bread machine to knead dough. In a microwave-safe bowl combine the milk and ½ c. butter. Microwave in 30-sec bursts until the butter is melted into the milk. Pour the mixture into the bowl of the bread maker or standing mixer and allow it to cool while you gather and measure the dry ingredients.

When the milk and butter mixture is just warm to the touch add the instant yeast, sugar, egg, salt, and ¼ c. diced, pickled jalapenos. Turn the machine on to begin to mix the wet ingredients. A cup at a time, add in the flour until it forms a solid ball of dough and pulls away from the bowl. (If you’re using a bread machine you can follow the manufacturer’s instructions with this recipe.)

When the dough is formed, detach it from the dough hook and cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and put it in a warm location to rise. Allow the dough to double in size before proceeding, about 4-6 hours or longer in cool weather.

When the dough has doubled in size, place it onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out into a large rectangle about 14 x 24 inches. For the filling spread the 1/3 c. softened butter over the surface of the dough and sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon. Peel up the edge of the dough closest to you and roll it jelly-roll style into a little log. Cut the dough into 12 rolls. (Watch the video for more direction.)

Grease a 9x 13-inch baking pan with butter or coconut oil and place the rolls inside. It is fine if they are lightly spaced out because they will continue to rise. Cover and let rise a second time until they fill the baking pan, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

When the rolls have doubled in size remove the cover and bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes. While they are baking prepare the brown butter icing.

For the icing, In a saucepan, melt the stick of butter and cook on low heat until the milk solids foam, then they will turn dark and fall to the bottom (they will look like little specks). After this occurs the scent of the butter will turn nutty and the color will begin to turn golden brown. The entire process takes 3-4 minutes.

Transfer the butter to a bowl and either whisk in the other icing ingredients or beat them in using electric beaters for a fluffier consistency. Finish with just enough kosher salt to enhance the roasted flavors of the brown butter, about 1/8 to ¼ of a teaspoon. Set aside while the rolls finish.

To finish the rolls remove them from the oven and smear them with the brown butter icing. The rolls will keep for a day on the countertop or longer if refrigerated.
