TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + rising Bake: 20 min. YIELD: 27 rolls.
The appealing homemade yeast-bread flavor of these golden rolls is unbeatable. Soft and light, they're great alongside any entree. Folks are disappointed if I don't bring them to potluck dinners. —Carol Mead, Los Alamos, New Mexico

Ingredients

  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 1/3 cup plus 1 teaspoon sugar, divided
  • 1-1/2 cups warm water (110° to 115°), divided
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup instant nonfat dry milk powder
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons salt
  • 5-1/2 to 6 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

  • 1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in 1/2 cup water. Add the butter, eggs, milk powder, salt, 3 cups flour, and the remaining sugar and water. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
  • 2. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours.
  • 3. Punch dough down. Divide into 27 pieces; shape into balls. Place 18 balls in a greased 13x9-in. baking pan and remaining balls in a greased 9-in. square baking pan. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  • 4. Preheat oven to 375°. Bake rolls until golden brown, 17-20 minutes. Cool on wire racks.
