Start by proofing the yeast.
Mix until the yeast dissolves.
Let it sit for about 5 minutes.
Combine them and make a well.
Start your stand mixer on low until the flour is fully incorporated, then increase the speed.
Mix until you have a dough for about 8 to 10 minutes.
If you are doing it by hand, pour the ingredients into the well.
Stir with a wooden spoon to bring it all together.
Work it in a bowl until it holds together.
After that, knead it to the surface with a little bit of flour until smooth.
Step 3:
Transfer to your surface and form it into a dough.
Flour it and transfer it to a clean bowl.
Cover with a cling wrap and place it at room temperature until it is 50%-75% bigger.
After that, place it in the fridge to finish rising.
Step 4:
Make the sticky topping.
Place over heat and mix.
Let it come to a boil.
Step 5:
Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter.
Sprinkle to the pan and press them down.
Step 7:
Form the buns.
Remove the dough from the oven and roll it into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
Pour the melted sugar on top and spread evenly.
Step 8:
Sprinkle the cardamom mixture on top of the butter.
Roll into a spiral on the long end.
Cut into 12 pieces, then place them into the pan in a four-by-three grid.
Cover them and let them sit at room temperature until 50% bigger in size.
Step 10:
Let them cool for 5 minutes and remove from the pan.
