BEST DINNER ROLLS

These Are Our ALL-TIME FAVORITE Dinner Rolls! They Are Soft, Butter-Y And Always The Hit For Any Dinner Or Holiday Get Together. It’s So Hard To Eat Just One!

INGREDIENTS

• 1 tbsp yeast
• 1/4 cup warm water
• 1/2 tsp sugar
• 1 cup warm milk
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup flour
• 2 eggs
• 3-4 cups flour
• melted butter

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Mix 1 TB yeast with ¼ cup warm water and ½ tsp. sugar. Let stand until bubbly.
2. In a large bowl mix 1 cup warm milk, ½ cup oil, ½ cup sugar, 1 tsp. salt with a wooden spoon.
3. Add 1 cup of flour to mixture, and mix well. Add 2 eggs and beat until smooth (mix vigorously be hand). Add yeast mixture and mix vigorously until smooth.
4. Add 3-4 cups flour to the yeast mixture. Dough should be very sticky. Pour the dough into a large bowl. Cover with a tea towel and let rise for a few hours until it has doubled in size. 
5. Once the dough has doubled in size punch down and divide in half. Roll dough onto a floured surface making TWO 12 inch circles. Dough should be about ⅜" thick.
6. Brush dough with melted butter. Cut circles with a pizza cutter into 12 pieces (like a pizza). Roll from rounded edge to the point to make a crescent roll. Place into a greased pan (we use an 11 x16 metal pan and do 3 across and 8 rows down).
7. Cover dough with a tea towel and let rise for a few hours until it doubles in size.
8. Bake at 375 until light lightly browned, which is about 15-20 minutes. NOTE: Touch rolls to see if they bounce back - if they do not, bake a little longer). Brushed with melted butter right while warm. ENJOY!
