# How to Make It:

01 - In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, instant yeast, and salt until evenly combined.
02 - Add warm milk, warm water, melted butter, and egg to dry mixture. Stir together until a soft dough forms. Knead dough for 5 to 7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
03 - Place dough into a greased bowl, cover tightly, and let rise in a warm environment for 40 minutes or until doubled in size.
04 - Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
05 - Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a 16 by 10-inch rectangle.
06 - Spread softened butter evenly over dough. Sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon uniformly across the surface.
07 - Roll dough tightly starting from the long side into a log. Pinch the seam to seal completely.
08 - Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the log lengthwise in half. With the cut sides facing up, twist the two halves together evenly.
09 - Shape twisted dough into a wreath by connecting the ends and pinching to seal. Transfer wreath onto the prepared baking sheet.
10 - Bake in the preheated oven for 22 to 25 minutes until the crust turns golden brown. Remove and let cool slightly.
11 - Whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle glaze generously over the warm wreath before serving.
