Ingredients

• 1 cup Milk
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 0.25 cup Sugar
• 1 large Egg
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (for brushing)

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, warm the milk over low heat until it reaches about 110°F (warm to the touch but not hot). Remove from heat.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the warm milk, active dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon of the sugar. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, melted butter, remaining sugar, and salt.

Step 4

Add the yeast mixture to the bowl and mix until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually stir in the all-purpose flour, 1 cup at a time, until a soft dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Step 7

Place the dough ball into a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free area for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.

Step 8

Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a floured surface. Roll it out into a rectangle about 1/2-inch thick.

Step 9

Cut the dough into 12 equal squares or rectangles using a knife or bench scraper.

Step 10

Place the rolls onto a lightly greased baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each roll. Cover with a towel and let them rise again for about 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.

Step 11

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 12

Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown on top.

Step 13

Remove the rolls from the oven and immediately brush with melted unsalted butter for a soft, shiny finish.

Step 14

Serve warm with butter or honey butter, and enjoy!
