In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
Add granulated sugar, melted butter, eggs, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix well.
Gradually add in flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Meanwhile, mix together brown sugar and cinnamon for the filling.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
Spread melted butter over the dough, then evenly sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture on top.
Roll up the dough tightly from the long edge, then cut into 12 even rolls.
Place the rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake rolls for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
To make the glaze, beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and enough milk to achieve a pourable consistency.
Once the rolls are out of the oven, let them cool slightly before drizzling the glaze over the top. Serve warm.
