My sister, Margo, and I prepared the feast when I wed Richard. These rich, tender rolls were my favorite part of the meal. They absolutely melt in your mouth!

Love Knots Recipe
  • Prep: 45 min. + rising Bake: 15 min.
  • Yield: 48 Servings
45 15 60

Ingredients

  • 2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
  • 2 teaspoons plus 1/2 cup sugar, divided
  • 1-1/4 cups warm water (110° to 115°)
  • 3/4 cup warm milk (110° to 115°)
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted, cooled
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 6-1/2 to 7 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • Sesame seeds, optional

Directions

  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast and 2 teaspoons sugar in water. Add milk, butter, eggs, salt, remaining sugar and 4 cups flour; beat on low for 3 minutes or until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch dough down. Divide into four portions. Cover three with plastic wrap. Shape one portion into 12 balls; roll each ball into an 8-in. rope. Tie into a knot; tuck ends under. Pinch to seal. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Repeat with remaining three portions. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 25 minutes. Beat egg yolk and water; brush over dough. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired. Bake at 375° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 4 dozen.
