  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the butternut squash, flour, sugar, yeast, milk, melted butter, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well until a dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  5. Punch down the dough and roll it out into a rectangle on a floured surface.
  6. Spread melted butter over the dough and sprinkle with a mixture of cinnamon and sugar.
  7. Starting from one long side, tightly roll up the dough into a log.
  8. Cut the log into 12 equal slices and place them in a greased baking dish.
  9. Cover the dish with a clean kitchen towel and let the rolls rise for another 30 minutes.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  11. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to make the glaze.
  12. Drizzle the glaze over the warm cinnamon rolls.
