FOR THE ROLLS:
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 1 ¼ cup warm milk heated to 105-110 degrees F
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter room temperature
- 1 large egg room temperature
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 ½ - 4 cups all-purpose flour plus more for kneading
FOR FINISHING:
- 3 Tablespoons unsalted butter melted
MAKE DOUGH:
In a small bowl, whisk together milk and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast over the top.
Let the yeast sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
Add the mixture to a large mixing bowl, and add 4 Tablespoons butter, egg, salt, and 2 cups flour.
Beat on medium speed until batter is smooth.
Gradually add 1 ½ - 2 cups more flour until a soft ball of dough forms.
Increase the speed on the mixer to medium-high and beat for 2-3 minutes longer. The dough should be tacky, but not sticky. If too sticky, add more flour 1 tablespoon at a time.
RISE DOUGH:
Lightly grease a large bowl and place the dough into the bowl, turning once to coat.
Cover the bowl with a clean dish towel and set in a warm place to rise until doubled in size, 45-60 minutes.
Once risen, punch down dough gently.
SHAPE AND CUT DOUGH:
Lightly flour the work surface and turn the dough out of the bowl.
Let the dough sit for a few minutes while you prepare the baking sheets with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
Roll the dough into a 12x8 inch rectangle, that is ½-inch thick.
Cut dough into 24 even pieces using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
SECOND RISE:
Transfer the rolls to the prepared baking sheets.
Cover the rolls with dish towels and let them rise until almost doubled in size, about 45-60 minutes.
BAKE:
Bake rolls for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown, rotating the pans halfway through baking.
Remove the rolls from the oven and brush immediately with melted butter.
