Total time
Author: Krista
Recipe type: Appetizer
Serves: 48 Rolls
- ½ ounce dry yeast
- 1⅓ cup warm water (110F will dissolve the yeast without killing it)
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 tsp salt
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 8 cups bread flour (you can substitute all-purpose flour)
- Dissolve yeast in warm water.
- Combine sugar, salt, eggs, and butter in a large mixing bowl. Mix in flour a cup at a time until smooth.
- Cover with a clean towel and put in a warm place. Let raise until double (about 1½ hours).
- Punch dough down and divide into quarters. Cover remaining quarters with the towel while you work with one quarter at a time.
- Roll each quarter into a 12-inch circle. Cut into 12 wedges. A pizza cutter works well for this.
- Roll each wedge up starting at the wide end. Tuck the point under the roll and place on a lightly greased baking sheet.
- Cover and let rise approximately 1 hour.
- Bake at 400F for approximately 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
- Lightly brush tops with butter while still hot.
- Serve and enjoy!
