These rolls are really tasty!
One Hour Rolls
1 1/4 cups milk, scalded (heat in microwave for 2 minutes)
4 Tbsp. butter
3 Tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs, beaten
1 Tbsp. yeast (with 1 tsp. sugar in 1/2 C. warm water)
4 cups flour (I always do at least 1/2 whole wheat)
Combine yeast, sugar & warm water in a small bowl & let sit until the yeast is dissolved. Scald milk by cooking in the microwave for 2 minutes. Melt butter in scalded milk. Cool. Add eggs, sugar, salt, and dissolved yeast. Mix in flour and cover and let raise for 20 minutes. Knead dough & add extra flour until your desired consistency is reached (I always need quite a bit more flour because the dough is really sticky). Shape into rolls and place on a pan (I use a jelly roll pan) with a few tablespoons of melted butter--make sure the butter gets on both sides of the rolls. Let the rolls raise until they double in size. Bake at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes.
Makes approximately 16 rolls.
*This recipe works good for our family of 3 & we always have leftovers, but I always double the batch if it's going to be for more people.
