Easy Dinner Rolls

1 Cup of warm water

2 packages of active yeast or 5 tsp if you use bulk yeast

1/2 cup of butter softened

1/2 cup of sugar

3 eggs 

1 tsp of salt

4 1/4 cups of flour

Do not preheat oven yet, these need time in the fridge! 

 

Add the yeast to the warm water

 measure out your sugar

sprinkle a little bit of the sugar in the water

give the mixture a little stir and set aside

When it is ready it will be all foamy like this

Put in the mixer bowl, or a big mixing bowl if you are doing it by hand

Melted butter, add to the bowl with the yeast mixture

Add the sugar

Add your eggs one at a time mixing well between them since I have been known to drop the whole thing in the bowl I stop the mixing to add each egg

 Add the salt

Give it all a little stir.

Now start adding the flour a little at a time, not all at once.

It will look like this a little sticky

put it on a floured surface an knead a little until it is a nice little ball and not so sticky

Let the monkey add a little flour to the surface... important step!

Now put the dough in a covered dish and put in the fridge. You can use this dough from 2 hours to 3 days

Make has many rolls as you want and let them rise until they are doubled in size. Then bake about 17 minutes at 375 degrees

 

 YUM!

Add a pat of butter or my favorite... dip in honey. Enjoy!
