- Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter, warm milk, sugar, salt, egg, and melted butter. Gradually add the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for about 4-8 hours, or until doubled in size. - Prepare the Filling
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside. - Assemble the RollsOnce the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick. Spread the softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly on top. Roll the dough up tightly, then cut into 12 equal slices. Place the slices in a greased baking dish, cover, and let rise again for about 1 hour.
