1/2 cup
butter

1/4 cup
warm water

1 tablespoon
yeast
-
1 teaspoon
sugar
-
5 1/2 cups
bread flour

Directions
-
Scald milk and melt butter in the milk. Set aside to cool.
-
combine water, yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar, stir and let sit until foamy.
-
Mix together all ingredients (it will not seem like bread dough).
-
Refrigerate at least 6 hours. Form into rolls and let rise 3 hours. This dough will keep in the refrigerator for 10 days. I often use just part of the dough and then have fresh rolls again another day.
-
Bake at 375 degrees until golden brown.
