Heritage Schoolhouse: Dec 13, 2014

You will need -

2 1/4 teaspoons yeast

1/4 cup lukewarm water

1 cup lukewarm milk

3 tablespoons melted butter, slightly cooled

1/4 cup sugar

4 cups flour, divided

1 egg

1 teaspoon salt

extra butter, for basting rolls

What to do -

Combine yeast and water in bowl of stand mixer.

Let sit for 10 minutes.

Add milk, butter, and sugar.

Combine using paddle attachment.

Add 1 1/2 cups of flour and mix until combined.

Add egg and salt and mix well.

Switch to dough hook and add remaining 2 1/2 cups of flour.

Continue mixing for 5 minutes.

Dough should be smooth.

Place dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel,

and put in a warm place to rise for one hour.

Spread dough out on a floured surface and shape into a square about an inch thick.

Using a pizza cutter, cut dough into 18 squares and place on a parchment lined cookie sheet.

Let rolls rise 30-45 minutes longer and then bake at 350 for 15 minutes.

Take rolls out, baste with butter and put under broiler for about a minute to brown tops of rolls.

Remove from oven and baste one (or two!) more times with butter.

SERVE WARM! :-)

(Three were consumed at my house before I even got them to the table!)
