• In a heavy-duty stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, add in 4 cups flour; set aside.
• In a small saucepan heat the 1 cup full-fat milk with 1/4 cup butter, salt and 3 tablespoons sugar until the butter starts to melt, stirring with a spoon (butter does not have to completely melt) set aside until warm and not hot, to speed things up place in the fridge for about 20 minutes this will cool it down faster, the mixture should be warm but not hot.
• When the milk mixture is warm, proof 1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon yeast in 1/2 cup warm water with 1 teaspoon sugar; let sit for 10 minutes or until foamy.
• Add the yeast and the warm milk/butter mixture and the egg to the bowl with the flour in it.
• Start mixing, adding more flour only if needed to create a soft semi sticky dough that holds around the kneader blade (it might take up to 5 cups of flour).
• Keep adding more flour 1 tablespoon at a time as needed and knead the dough for 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth.
• Remove the dough from the mixing bowl, and let sit covered with a clean tea towel on the counter for 10 minutes.

• Place in an oiled bowl.
• Cover and let rise about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
• Punch down dough.
• Divide dough into 12 pieces, and shape into round balls.
• Place the dough balls into the prepared baking dish (fitting 12 balls evenly in the dish with 3 balls across and 4 rows down, if you have extra dough balls place into the freezer to bake another time).

• Cover bowl with plastic wrap and chill for 2 hours.
• Set oven to 400°F.
• Line cookie sheets with parchment paper (do not grease cookie sheets use parchment paper only).

• Place cookies 2-inches apart on cookie sheet.
• Bake 4-6 minutes.
• Remove cookies to wire racks to cool completely before icing.
• For the frosting; in a small bowl mix the confectioners sugar with milk (start with 1-2 tablespoons, you will likely need more milk for the perfect spreading consistency).

KITTENCAL'S SOFT TENDER CRESCENT ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat the milk, Crisco, sugar and salt on top of stove until fairly warm (just until the butter melts, but does not have to melt completely) remove from heat and cool until warm but not hot (if you are in a hurry, place in the fridge for about 20 minutes).
• Warm egg slightly in warm water to bring to room temperature only.
• When milk is still warm but not hot, place 3-1/2 cups flour in the Kitchen Aid stainless steel mixing bowl bowl with room temp egg and cooled milk/butter mixture, mix, cover with a towel to keep all ingredients warm while proofing yeast.
• Proof yeast in water with 1 tsp sugar for 10 minutes until foamy, then add to bowl.

• Place dough into a well greased bowl.

• Punch down dough.
• Divide dough into two or three balls, (three sections will give you smaller crescents) then roll into an even circle with a rolling pin and spread/brush liberally with melted butter (use only butter!).
• This is a great tip, roll out the dough and just sit a small pizza pan lightly on top of your rolled dough, then run a pizza cutter all around the edges of the pizza pan, you will have an even round circle.
• Cut into even size triangles (I use a pizza cutter for this!).
• Roll up the dough starting at the larger end.
