"These rolls are sooooo good. And they keep for days in the fridge after you bake them and still taste fresh. This dough also makes good cinnamon rolls"

Step by Step Method
Step 1
WIn a small bowl, mix 1/3 of the warm milk with 2 tsp sugar, add in dry yeast and let sit until bubbly and puffy, about 10-12 minutes.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine remaining milk, melted butter, salt and 1é4 cup sugar or honey and beat until the sugar is dissolved. Then add the beaten eggs and bubbly yeast.
Step 3
Add flour, 1/4 cup at a time, beating on high speed of stand mixer. This step should take at least 5 minutes. When the dough gets too stiff to beat, stir in rest of flour by hand, if necessary, to make a soft dough. Turn out onto floured surface and knead for 5 minutes, until smooth and satiny.
Step 4
Place dough in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in warm place until light and doubled in size, about 1 hour or more.
Step 5
Punch down the dough and roll out on floured surface to 1/2" thickness. Cut with 3" round cookie cutter. Brush each roll with melted butter and fold in half to make half circles. Pinch edge lightly to hold, so the rolls don't unfold as they rise. Place in 2 greased 13x9" pans, cover, and let rise again until double, about 45 minutes.
Step 6
Bake rolls at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan immediately and brush with more melted butter. Don't use the same butter you used when forming the rolls - melt some fresh just for this step.
