Jump to RecipeTo start, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together the melted butter, warm milk, warm water, and egg. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, then place it back in the bowl and cover with a kitchen towel. Let the dough rise for about an hour.
While the dough is rising, prepare the filling by mixing together the softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Set aside.
Once the dough has risen, roll it out into a large rectangle. Spread the filling evenly over the dough, leaving about an inch around the edges. Starting with the longer side, roll the dough tightly into a log. Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 1-inch slices.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and arrange the slices in a circular pattern, slightly overlapping each other to form a tree shape. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
While the Christmas tree is baking, prepare the glaze by mixing together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Once the tree is done baking, let it cool for a few minutes before drizzling the glaze over the top.
