Ingredients

Scale

Yeast Mixture

  • 2 tsp Active Dry Yeast
  • 1/4 cup Warm Water

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Milk (room temperature)
  • 6 Tbsp Butter (melted and divided)
  • 1/3 cup Sugar
  • 1 Large Egg (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp Salt

Dry Ingredients

  • 3 1/2 – 4 cups Flour

Instructions

  1. Activate Yeast: In a stand mixer, combine the warm water and active dry yeast. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes until the yeast dissolves and becomes frothy, indicating activation.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: Add the room temperature milk, 4 tablespoons of melted butter, sugar, egg, and salt to the yeast mixture in the mixer. Using the dough hook attachment, mix lightly for about 1 minute until combined.
  3. Add Flour Gradually: Slowly add the flour to the mixer bowl, about 1 cup at a time. Mix after each addition using the dough hook until the dough forms a soft ball and pulls away cleanly from the sides of the bowl. Adjust flour amount as needed depending on humidity and dough consistency.
  4. First Rise: Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 to 2 hours until it doubles in size.
  5. Punch Down and Roll Out: After the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Roll it out on a floured surface to about 1/2 inch thickness.
  6. Cut Rolls: Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut the dough into 20 to 24 square pieces.
  7. Second Rise: Spray two baking sheets with non-stick cooking spray. Place the dough squares on the sheets, leaving at least 1 inch apart. Cover the dough with a cloth and let them rise for about 30 minutes until doubled in size.
  8. Preheat Oven: Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) while the rolls complete their second rise.
  9. Bake Rolls: Bake the rolls for 12-15 minutes until they turn a light golden brown color on top.
  10. Butter the Rolls: Remove the rolls from the oven, and immediately brush them with the remaining melted butter. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure the milk and egg are at room temperature for the best dough consistency.
  • The amount of flour needed can vary; dough should be soft but not sticky.
  • Do not skip the rising periods; they are essential for fluffy rolls.
  • Brushing with butter after baking adds flavor and keeps rolls soft.
  • These rolls can be stored in an airtight container for 2-3 days or frozen for longer storage.
