For the dough:

1 egg plus 1 egg yolk, at room temperature

Warm milk to around 110 degrees F. Transfer warm milk to a large bowl and sprinkle yeast on top. Add in sugar, egg, egg yolk and melted butter. Mix until well combined. Next stir in flour and salt with a wooden spoon until a dough begins to form.
Knead the dough for 8-10 minutes on a well-floured surface. Transfer dough ball to a well-oiled bowl, cover a warm towel. Allow dough to rise for 1 hour to 1 ½ hours, or until doubled in size.
Combine brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice and butter until well blended. After dough has doubled in size, transfer dough to a well-floured surface and roll out into a 14x9 inch rectangle. Spread softened butter & pumpkin spice mixture over dough, leaving a ¼ inch margin at the far side of the dough.
