I made these last Sunday for Casey's birthday. They're, hands down, the most popular rolls I've made. Unfortunately, They were so popular that they all got eaten before I got a picture! I'll make them again soon and fix that!
Ingredients:
1 C Scalded milk (If you do this in the microwave, make sure the container is large enough so the milk doesn't spill over)
1/2 C butter
1/2 C sugar (I'm going to try to reduce this next time)
2 Eggs
1 tsp. salt
1 Tbs. yeast
1/2 C warm water
4 1/2 C flour
Instructions:
Put yeast in 1/2 C water with 1 tsp. sugar and set aside for 5 minutes.
Put milk and butter (sliced it up first) in stand mixer.
Using the bread hook attachment, mix together then add eggs and mix a little more.
Add 2 C of flour and sugar and mix a little.
Add yeast mixture and mix for 5 minutes.
Add 1 C flour and salt and mix together.
Add enough more flour and mix (I usually add all that's left).
Cover with greased plastic wrap and allow to rise until double in size (usually about an hour or two in a warm environment)
Take out of bowl and divide into two balls of dough.
Roll each ball out into a 1/4" thick circle.
Spread with about 1/4 C melted butter.
Cut each circle into 12 equal parts.
Roll fat end of each triangle towards to skinny end (to make croissant shape). Allow to rise again for about an hour.
Brush the tops with melted butter.
Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes
I know it sounds complicated but once you try it you'll see it's not that hard! Plus your family will love you! So scrumptious!
