  1. In a mixing bowl, combine lukewarm milk and softened unsalted butter until melted. Stir in granulated sugar and instant yeast.
  2. Gradually add flour and salt to form a soft dough; knead until smooth.

  6. Place in a greased baking dish, cover, and let rise for another hour.
  7. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour warmed heavy cream over rolls and bake for about 35 minutes until golden brown.
  8. For frosting, beat softened cream cheese and butter; gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract until creamy.
  9. Allow rolls to cool slightly before generously spreading frosting on top.
