After your first bite, you will never go back to store-bought rolls again.
Makes 12 rolls
1
⁄
cup whole milk, plus 1 tablespoon for brushing
3
6
tablespoons unsalted butter, plus 1 tablespoon for brushing
3
tablespoons granulated sugar
1¾
teaspoons active dry yeast
3
tablespoons warm water (105°F–110°F)
3
cups bread flour
¾
teaspoon kosher salt
1
egg, lightly beaten
1. In a small saucepan combine the milk, butter and sugar. Warm over low
heat until the butter is melted. Remove from heat and set aside until
cooled to room temperature.
2. Dissolve the yeast in the warm water in a large measuring cup. Let
stand 5 minutes, or until mixture is foamy. Put the flour and salt in the
work bowl of a Cuisinart
®
metal chopping blade and process for 10 seconds. Add the melted
butter mixture and egg to the yeast/water mixture. With the machine
running, slowly add the liquids through the feed tube and process until
a dough ball forms. Continue processing for 45 seconds to knead the
dough. Shape the dough into a smooth ball, put it in a clean mixing
bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place until the
dough has doubled in size, about 60 minutes.
