Dinner Rolls







Dinner Rolls
2 cups warm water
2/3 cups nonfat dry milk (instant or non-instant)
2 tbsp. yeast
1/4 cup sugar
2 tsp. salt
1/3 cup butter, melted and cooled
1 egg, lightly beaten
5 to 5 1/2 cup all-purpose or bread flour
melted butter, for brushing

1. Combine the water and milk powder in a glass measuring cup and stir until the milk dissolves. Add the yeast and then sugar, salt, cooled butter, egg and 2 cups flour. Using the paddle attachment, mix on low speed until ingredients are wet, then switch to the dough hook and mix on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add 2 cups of flour and mix on low speed until ingredients are wet again, then on medium speed for 2 more minutes.
2.  Add about 1/2 cup flour and mix again. Dough should be soft, not overly sticky, and not stiff. Add only enough flour to make the dough manageable.
3. Place dough in a lightly greased bowl and turn to coat. Cover and let rise until doubled in size, 1 - 1 1/2 hours.
3.   Turn dough out onto a floured surface and turn the dough so that it is floured on both sides. Gently flatten to 1 inch thick, then roll into a 18x8 inch rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick. Cut dough in half the long way, to make two 4 inch strips.
4.  Cut the dough every two inches to make 18 rectangles of dough, about 2x4 inches each. Starting with the short end, roll the dough up (almost into a crescent shape) and place on greased baking sheets with the seam side down.
5. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
6. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 to 18 minutes or until browned. After removing from the oven, brush with melted butter while hot.
