Ingredients
  

  • 2 packets rapid rise yeast (1/4 oz each)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (plus 1 tsp)
  • 1 1/3 cup milk (may use water)
  • 4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 8 Tbsp butter (divided)

Method
 

  1. In a large measuring cup, dissolve both packets of yeast and 1 teaspoon of sugar in 1 1/3 cup of lukewarm milk or water. Allow this mixture to stand for about 5–7 minutes until it becomes frothy.
  2. Sift together flour, salt, and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Add the egg into this mixture.
  3. Gradually pour the yeast mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients along with 5 tablespoons of melted butter. Mix together to create the dough.
  4. Turn out the dough onto a clean surface and shape it gently into a ball. Transfer it into a buttered bowl and cover with a damp cloth.
  5. Allow the dough to rest in a warm area covered for about one hour or until doubled in size.
  6. Gently punch down the dough to release air bubbles. Using a medium-sized ice cream scoop, portion the dough into golf ball-sized pieces and roll into smooth balls.
  7. Place the rolled balls side by side in a buttered baking pan. Brush their tops with melted butter and let rise until doubled again, around one hour.
  8. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Bake for about 20–22 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Serve immediately with more butter melting over them.
