Butter Rolls

I have had a lot of requests for this recipe to be made available - so here it is - enjoy!

2 Yeast Packets

2 cups lukewarm water

1 cup butter

1 cup sugar

6 beaten eggs

1 1/2 tsp salt

8 to 10 cups flour

-Mix yeast with 2 tablespoons of sugar and 2 cups of lukewarm water

-Add melted butter, sugar, and beaten eggs.  Mix well.

-Sift flour and salt - add to above gradually.  The mixture will be very sticky.  

-Cover with damp cloth.  Let rise for 2 hours.

-Stir down and put in refrigerator overnight, covered with damp cloth.

-When you are ready to use the dough flour your hands and take out what out what you need.  Roll out to 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick about the size of a 9 inch pie.  Brush with melted butter.  Cut like you are cutting a pie.  Roll up each piece starting with the wide end.  Place on cookie sheet and cover.  

-Let rolls rise for 4 - 5 hours.  That is what makes them light. 

-Bake at 375 for 10 minutes.  

-After baking brush with melted butter.  

Each recipe yields about 60 medium rolls.
