In large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups flour, 1/4 cup sugar and salt.
In a saucepan or bowl in the microwave, melt your butter and milk. Let cool until warm (about 90°F) and add your yeast to proof.
Once yeast has proofed add your milk and butter mixture along with your egg to the flour/sugar mix.
Stir to combine. Add 1/2 cup at a time of the remaining flour until dough starts to pull away from bowl.
Place dough onto floured surface and knead until dough is smooth and elastic, adding in additional flour as needed, about 5 minutes.
Cover and place in warm place until dough has doubled in size.
Once your dough has doubled move to a lightly floured surface and roll out into a 12 x 15-inch rectangle.
Spread your filling (instructions below) mixture over the top until it reaches edges, sprinkle with blueberries.
Roll up starting on long side then cut into 12 equal sections.
Place in a 9 x13-inch baking dish and cover and place in warm place again (or in refrigerator if letting these rise overnight).
Once doubled in size again, preheat your oven to 350°F and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until tops are golden. Remove from oven and set aside. Top with glaze (instructions below) and serve warm.
