Instructions

1. In a mixer bowl, add the milk and yeast, then add the sugar and whisk well.
2. Add the butter, flour, salt, eggs and lemon zest, and beat with the hook at high speed for 8 to 10 minutes.
3. Move the dough to a floured bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let it double in volume, about 1 hour. The dough will be quite sticky.
4. Roll the dough on a floured surface into a 40x60 cm sheet.
5. In a bowl, mix the sugar, cinnamon and butter into a paste.
6. Spread the paste over the whole dough and roll it up lengthways.
7. Cut the roll into 16 pieces and place them cut side down in a buttered 30 cm baking pan. Press gently to even their shape.
8. Cover with a tea towel and let rise for about 30 minutes, until doubled.
9. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) fan-assisted.
10. Bake for 30 minutes, then let cool.
11. Put the icing sugar in a bowl and add lemon juice a few drops at a time, mixing until it forms a thick glaze.
12. Spread the glaze over the rolls and serve.
