Ingredients:


For the Bread:

2 ¼ teaspoons (1 package) active dry yeast
¼ cup warm water (110°F/45°C)
½ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
½ cup whole milk, warmed
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
For the Cream Cheese Filling:

8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions:


Prepare the Dough:
In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, eggs, warm milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well.

Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling:
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Assemble the Bread:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan.
After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle about ½ inch thick.
