- 1 cup warm milk (110°F)
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- ½ tsp ground nutmeg

Instructions
- Prepare the dough by warming the milk until it's warm but not boiling. Sprinkle yeast on top and let it activate until bubbly.
- In a bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg; combine with the yeast mixture and melted butter to form a shaggy dough.
- Knead on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Let it rise in an oiled bowl covered with a damp cloth for an hour.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle, spread softened butter on top, and sprinkle with a filling of brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg.
- Roll tightly into a log, slice into rolls, place in a greased baking dish, and allow to rise for another 30 minutes while preheating the oven to 350°F.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown; drizzle with maple frosting before serving.
