Marj's Hot Rolls



(From The Mormon Family Cookbook)
Directions:
½ cup (1 stick) butter or margarine
1 cup milk
2 packages (2 tablespoons) dry yeast (I use SAF Instant Yeast)
½ cup hot water
3 eggs, beaten
½ cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
4 cups flour (or until dough clings to bread hook, but is still a little sticky to the touch)

Melt butter in small saucepan. Pour in milk and remove from heat. If not using the SAF Instant Yeast soften yeast in warm water. If using SAF Instant Yeast put yeast, 2 tablespoons of the ½ cup sugar and ½ cup flour in mixing bowl; add ½ cup hot water and mix with dough hook until blended. Add beaten eggs, remaining sugar and salt to yeast mixture. Add flour until dough clings to bread hook, but is still a little sticky to the touch. Put in covered bowl and let rise for about ½ hour until when you stick your finger in the dough the whole stays. Roll out on cutting board (I spray it with Pam) about ½ inch thick and shape rolls (I use round drinking glass to cut rolls). Place in baking sheet lined with parchment paper and cover and let rise about 20 to 30 minutes. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 12 minutes. Makes about 3 doz.
