In a large bowl, yeast mixture and about 2 cups of flour.

Turn out dough onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic.

Rip off small pieces of dough {I used like a quarter size} and roll into a ball.

Dip the ball in the butter and then roll it around in the sugar mixture; place on a cookie sheet.

Repeat steps 12 & 13 until you fill your cookie sheet up and then bake for 10-12 minutes.

Do this until all the dough is gone.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine powdered sugar, milk, butter, and vanilla until smooth.

Use a spoon to drizzle your frosting over the cinnamon roll bites.
