Instructions

1
Make enriched dough: Combine milk, water, yeast, and sugar; rest 5 minutes. Add eggs, butter, flour, and salt; knead 8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Let rise covered until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch down.
2
Make caramel: Melt ½ cup butter in a small saucepan with brown sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon; cook 2 minutes until dissolved. Pour half into the bottom of a greased 10-cup Bundt pan. Mix ¾ cup sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon in a bowl.
3
Divide dough into 60 small pieces. Roll each into a ball, dip in melted butter, then roll in cinnamon sugar. Layer the balls in the Bundt pan, pouring the remaining caramel between layers. Cover and let rise 30 minutes until puffy. Bake at 350°F for 30–35 minutes until deep golden. Cool in the pan exactly 5 minutes, then invert onto a plate — the caramel cascades down over every ball. Serve immediately by pulling apart.
