Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 24 servings

  • 1 cup milk

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

  • 4 tablespoons water

  • 1 egg, beaten

  • 4 cups bread flour

  • ½ (3.5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix

  • 1 tablespoon white sugar

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 2 ¼ teaspoons bread machine yeast

  • 1 cup packed brown sugar

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened

  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • ¼ cup chopped walnuts (Optional)

  • ¼ cup raisins (Optional)

  • 1 ½ cups confectioners' sugar

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

  • 1 teaspoon milk

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Place milk, 4 tablespoons melted butter, water, beaten egg, bread flour, pudding mix, sugar, salt, and yeast in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select Dough cycle.

  2. Remove dough from machine after the cycle is done; knead 3 to 5 minutes. Roll out to a large rectangle. Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.

  3. Combine brown sugar, 1/2 cup softened butter, and cinnamon in a bowl; spread over dough. Sprinkle walnuts and raisins over top.
