Delicious Dinner Rolls

Sorry to all of you for my neglect to post this recipe sooner. Life a you know can get a little busy and so it was this week. But in order not to disappointing I have found a most delightful creation for you.

This weeks recipe comes from the How Does She Do girls at www.howdoesshe.com. Check out their blog. They have lots of great recipes, advice on organization, and home and family life. They were awesome enough to share this recipe with us, so do give them a look-see.

I have my favorite bread/roll recipe that I hardly stray from, and why should I? It works great! It's versatile, I know just how to make it, and I know just how it will turn out every time because I've made it so many times. But, as part of this challenge that I've given myself I thought why not give this dinner roll recipe a try, and I am glad I did. It came out so buttery, fluffy, just melt in your mouth good, especially while they are still warm. These will definitely be made again in the future.



Ingredients:
1 1/2 Cups Milk
3/4 cups + 1 Tbs Sugar
1 Egg
1 Tbs salt
2 cups warm Water
9-10 Cups of flour
about 1 cup Butter

Directions:
1. In a microwave safe bowl place milk, 3/4 cup sugar, and 1/2 cup butter. Make sure you cube or slice the butter so it melts quickly. Place is a microwave for 1-2 minutes till the milk is scalded.
2. Place the yeast in a small bowl with warm water and 1 tbs Sugar
3. Once the milk mixture is scalded remove, carefully, from the microwave and 1-2 Cups of flour to help it cool down.
4. Once the milk mixture is cooled a little add the yeast mixture.
5. Add the rest of the flour 2 cups at a time and the salt. Keep mixing after the last of the flour is in to thicken the dough. More flour can be added if necessary, but it should end up being dense and sticky to the touch.
6. Let it sit covered in a warm place till it has doubled in size.
7. Grease 2 baking sheets with butter for when the dough is ready.
8. Once dough is doubled divide the dough into 4 balls and work with one ball at a time. Melt about 1/2 cup butter.
9. On a floured surface roll out dough ball to about 1/2 inch thickness. spread about 2 tablespoons of butter on the surface and cup into triangles (like a pizza) with a sharp knife or pizza cutter into 12 slices.
10. Roll up each triangle piece and place on the greased baking sheet with the point tucked under. Place about an inch apart
11. Cover and let rise once again, until doubled in size.
12. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and bake for 10-15 min until golden brown.
13. While still hot bast with butter.

Enjoy!
