Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 4 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 7 cups all-purpose flour, or as needed
• 0.5 cup butter, melted
• 0.5 cup butter, softened
• 0.5 cup sugar
• 2.5 cups warm milk

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Add milk to a large mixing bowl; sprinkle yeast over surface. Allow to rest for 5 minutes. Beat in sugar, 1/2 cup softened butter, eggs, and salt; blend thoroughly. Gradually stir in flour until a soft dough forms. Cover bowl; set in a warm place until dough doubles in size, about 1 hour.

Step 3

Punch down dough, cover the bowl, allow to rise again. Repeat this step two more times.

Step 4

Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Break off 2- to 3-inch-sized dough pieces, lightly roll into a round shape; place in the prepared baking dish with edges touching. Repeat to make 36 dough balls. Cover and let rise until doubled in size.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until tops turn golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Drizzle 1/2 cup melted butter over tops; serve warm.
