Directions

  1. 1Heat up the milk until it's cozy, then melt the butter and set it aside to cool off for a bit.
  2. 2Activate the yeast by adding a quarter cup of warm water and a tablespoon of active dry yeast to a bowl.
  3. 3Mix the yeast mixture up and let it sit for about 5 minutes to get active.
  4. 4In a bowl, add one cup of warm whole milk, a quarter cup of melted butter, a quarter cup of sugar, and one large egg at room temperature.
  5. 5Whisk the wet ingredients together.
  6. 6Add in your foamy yeast mixture.
  7. 7Slowly mix in 3 and a half to 4 cups of flour.
  8. 8Just before all the flour is mixed in, add one teaspoon of salt.
  9. 9Mix it up until the dough starts to pull away from the bowl and it all comes together.
  10. 10Flour your work surface and turn the dough out.
  11. 11Knead the dough for about 6 to 8 minutes until it's bouncy and elastic.
  12. 12Get your bowl back, clean it out, add a little bit of grease, and put the dough in.
  13. 13Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let it rest in a warm spot for about an hour until it's doubled in size.
  14. 14After an hour, punch the dough down.
  15. 15Lightly flour your work surface again and turn the dough out.
  16. 16Roll out the dough to about half an inch thick.
  17. 17Cut your dough into equal squares (3x3).
  18. 18Lay the pieces of dough squares on a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet, spaced out just a little bit.
  19. 19Cover it and let it rest and rise again for about 45 minutes to an hour.
  20. 20Bake the rolls at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 12 to 15 minutes.
  21. 21Brush melted butter on them the second they come out.
  22. 22Serve with honey cinnamon butter.
