In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, instant yeast, and salt. Stir to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Warm the milk in the microwave or on the stovetop until it is about 100°F (warm but not hot to the touch).
Add the warm milk, melted butter, and the egg to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough begins to form.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook for 5-6 minutes.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
While the dough is rising, prepare the pudding. In a medium bowl, whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix with cold milk according to package instructions. Cover and refrigerate to set.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release air bubbles and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle approximately 16x12 inches.
Spread the chilled pudding evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Starting with the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seam to seal it.
Using a sharp knife or string, cut the log into 12 equal rolls and place them cut-side up in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
Cover the rolls with a towel and let them rise again for 20-30 minutes, or until puffy.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
Allow the baked rolls to cool slightly before drizzling the glaze over the top. Serve warm and enjoy!
