In a bowl of a standup mixer, fitted with a dough hook pour water and sugar in, sprinkle yeast over top, and stir. Let stand for 5-10 min. until the mixture becomes foamy.

Meanwhile, melt 6 Tbsp. of butter in a microwave-safe bowl, set aside to cool.

When the yeast mixture is ready add the milk, eggs, and 6 Tbsp. melted butter. Mix on low adding in 4 cups of flour, one cup at a time. Now add in the remaining flour slowly until the dough becomes a ball. Knead on medium-high for 5 min. The dough should be tacky but not sticky.

Lightly dust a work surface take the dough out and knead a few times by hand.

Add the last Tbsp. of butter to a large bowl and microwave. Place dough into a bowl and then turn over to coat with the butter. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and drape over a towel. Set the bowl in a warm spot in the kitchen and let the dough rise until doubled about 60-90 min.

While the dough is rising mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch for the filling and set aside.

When the dough is ready turn it onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead the dough a few times and then roll it out into an 18"x 24" wide rectangle. Spread on the 1/2 cup softened butter. Leave a 1" border around the edge.

Sprinkle the dough with the brown sugar mixture and press in with a rolling pin. Now take the top long end and roll towards yourself. Run a bead of water on the last 1" of dough to seal. Cut the dough in half and then each half in halves, you will now have 4 pieces. Cut each of the four pieces into thirds. You will have 12 rolls now.

Grease two 8x11" pans and 6 place rolls swirl side up into each pan. Place end pieces upside down. Again, loosely cover with plastic wrap and drape with a kitchen towel. Let stand in a warm spot in the kitchen and let rise until doubled about 60-90 min.

Preheat oven to 350F. Bake for 20 min. or until golden brown and cooked through. Rotate pans halfway.

While the rolls are baking make the icing. In a clean bowl of a standup mixer add in the butter and cream cheese and beat until light and fluffy. Add the rest of the ingredients and continue to beat for another 3-5 min. Set aside.

When the rolls are baked let cool for 5 min. then spread on 1/2 the icing. Let cool further and spread on the additional icing.
