Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 Tbsp unsalted butter
1/4 c sugar
1 tsp salt
3/4 c milk
1 (1/4-ounce) package (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
1/2 c warm (110 degrees) water
1 large egg, beaten
3 - 1/2 c all-purpose flour
3 - 4 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. Put the butter, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. ( I mixed the dough in my KitchenAid mixer). In a small saucepan, heat the milk until warm; pour it over the butter mixture and let cool. In a small bowl, sprinkle the yeast over the warm water; set aside to proof until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • 2. Stir the yeast mixture into the butter mixture. Beat in the egg, then beat in the flour until you have a soft dough. Cover and refrigerate.
  • 3. Two hours before baking, turn the dough out onto a floured surface and divide it in half. Divide each half into 6 equal portions, then divide each portion into 3 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, dip into the melted butter, and place in a muffin tin, 3 balls to a muffin cup. ( I didn't dip mine, I buttered the muffin tins, then once removed from oven, I buttered). Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • 4. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake the rolls for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • 5. These rolls are very light and tender..just delicious hot, right out of the oven.
