In a large bowl, mix 4 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast.
Warm 1 cup whole milk and 1/2 cup unsalted butter (cubed) in a microwave-safe bowl until the butter is melted. Do not overheat.
Add the milk and butter mixture to the flour mixture, along with 2 large eggs. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Roll out the dough into a large rectangle on a floured surface.
Spread 1/2 cup raspberry jam evenly over the dough.
Sprinkle with a mixture of 1/2 cup brown sugar and 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon.
Roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut into 12 even pieces and place them in a greased baking dish, cut side down.
Cover and let the rolls rise for an additional 30 minutes until puffy.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
While the rolls are baking, prepare the cream cheese frosting. In a medium bowl, beat 1/2 cup softened cream cheese, 1 cup powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
Once the rolls are done baking, let them cool slightly and then spread the frosting over the top. Serve warm and enjoy!
