==Directions==
=== Sweet bread dough ===
# Make a starter from yeast and a teaspoon of sugar. 
# Mix until the consistency of sour cream, add 2 – 3 tablespoons tepid milk, a little flour and mix well; sprinkle some flour on top, cover and let sit in a warm place to rise. 
# Boil the milk with the vanilla stick (cut in very small pieces) and leave it on the side of the range, covered, to keep warm. 
# Mix the yolks with the sugar and salt, then slowly pour the tepid milk, stirring continuously. 
# Place the risen starter in a large bowl and pour, stirring continuously, the yolk-milk mixture and some flour, a little at a time. 
# Then add 3 whipped egg whites. When you finish this step, start kneading. 
# Knead, adding melted butter combined with oil, a little at a time, until the dough starts to easily come off your palms. 
# Cover with a cloth and then something thicker (like a blanket). 
# Leave in a warm place to triple in bulk. 
# If during kneading the dough seems too hard, you may add a little milk. 
# If, on the contrary, the dough seems too soft, you may add a little flour. 
# When the dough has risen well, take a piece of it, place on the floured work surface, give it the desired shape (round, oval, braided, etc.) and place in the baking pan previously greased with butter. 
# Let rise some more in the pan in a warm place.
=== Filling ===
# Beat the butter with the sugar and vanilla until creamy.
# Refrigerate.
=== Assembly ===
# Roll a rectangular sheet from the dough.
# Then spread, all over the sheet, the butter mixed with the sugar.
# Roll like a jelly roll.
# Then cut 3 inch long pieces out of the roll.
# Place these pieces in a round baking pan.
# The baking pan is previously greased with butter and parchment paper, also greased, is placed in the pan.
# The dough pieces are placed so that the cut part is on the bottom and at the surface of the pan (like cinnamon rolls).
# Let rise for a little while and bake at slow heat until well risen.
# Then increase the heat.
# Remove from the pan after they are cold.
