2Microwave milk and buttermilk until it reaches 110°F.
3Add the warm milk mixture to the dry ingredients, along with melted butter, two eggs, one egg yolk, and vanilla.
4Knead the dough until smooth and slightly tacky.
5Grease a bowl, place the dough in it, flip it, and let it rise for 1 to 1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
6For the filling, mix softened butter, compact brown sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, a pinch of salt, and a quarter teaspoon of toasted sesame oil until it forms a thick paste.

8Evenly spread the filling across the dough.
9Roll the dough tightly from one end to the other.
10Fold over any excess dough and pinch to seal it.
