1 C warm milk (heat in microwave for 30 seconds and let sit while the yeast bubbles)
1/3 C sugar
1 package yeast (2 1/4 tsp)
1/3 C oil
1/2 T salt
1 egg
flour - I think I ended up using 5 1/2 to 6 cups
In mixer: combine yeast, sugar and warm water; let grow until bubbly (about 5 minutes). Add milk into yeast mix. Mix in oil and egg. Slowly add 2 C flour, mix and salt. Add 1/2 C flour at a time until it comes away from side of bowl. Let the dough rise in mixing bowl, coverning the top of the bowl with a towel, for about 30 minutes. Now it's time to shape the rolls.
Roll shape: Scrape dough out of bowl onto floured board. Divide dough into 2. Turn dough over so it is floured on both sides; gently flatten to about 1 inch thick. With rolling pin, roll out to a rectangle about 12 inches long, 8 inches wide, and 3/4 inch thick. Brush with melted butter. With pizza cutter or very sharp knife, cut dough in half to make 2 strips about 4 inches wide. Make cuts through strips of dough every 2 inches, making about 24 pieces of dough.
Starting with short end, roll up one piece of dough, with butter on the inside. Place roll on a greased pan with other short end down on the paper. Repeat iwth remaining pieces of dough. Be sure all rolls face the same direction onbaking pan. Cover lightly with plastic wrap and allow to rise until double in size, about 1 hour.
Bake at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes or until golden brown on top. Brush hot rolls with melted butter. Makes 2 dozen.
