60 Min. Rolls

Alrighty, you are going to thank me for posting these rolls. I make them on most Sundays, they are easy, fast and so yummy! So, break out your mixer and thank me later.

60 Minute Rolls
4 - 5 c. all purpose flour
3 T. sugar
1 t. salt
2 pkgs. active dry yeast (2 1/4 t. per package)
1 c. milk
1/2 c. water
1/4 c. butter or margarine

Place 3 1/2 c. flour, sugar, salt, and undissolved yeast into your mixing bowl. Mix.

Combine milk, water, and butter in microwaveable bowl. Heat in the microwave just until the liquids are very warm (the butter does not need to melt all they way). Take it out and stir it a bit to even distribute the heat, it should be warm!

While mixing, gradually add liquid to flour mixture, about 30 seconds. Mix 1 minute longer.

Continue mixing, add remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until dough clings to hook cleans to sides of bowl, about 5 min. Knead in mixer 7 -10 min. longer or until dough is smooth.

Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover, let rise in warm place, free from draft, for 15 min. I just put the lid on my Bosch and let the dough rise in there.

Turn the dough onto floured board. Shape as desired. Cover, let rise in slightly warm oven (90 F) for 15 min. I cover mine with a light dish towel and let then rise on the counter. Here is what mine looked like on Sunday:


Bake at 425 degrees for 8 - 10 min. Brush with a little melted butter and try not to eat them all before dinner!

There you have it friends, 60 Minute Rolls.
