A hint of sweetness in these tender milk rolls brings in many compliments. Served warm with butter or jam, this recipe is a big hit at any meal. They reheat nicely, too. —Merle Dyck, Elkford, British Columbia
Ingredients
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
2 cups warm 2% milk (110° to 115°)
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon salt
4 to 5-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions
1In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk. Add sugar, butter, salt and 3 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
