Ingredients
- 1½ cups Warm Water
- 1 tbsp Yeast
- 2 tbsp Sugar
- 1 tsp Salt
- ½ cup Butter divided, softened
- 4½ cup Flour

- Add two tablespoons of softened butter and half of the flour to the yeast mixture. Use a large wooden spoon to combine. Then add remaining flour, half a cup at a time, until a ball begins to form (will still be slightly sticky still). Cover will plastic and place in a warm spot (in a proofing drawer if you have one) for 30 minutes.
- Melt three tablespoons of butter and brush onto bottom and sides of a 13x9 baking dish.
- Remove dough to a slightly floured surface. Divide into 12 even portions. Knead and roll each portion into a ball and place in the baking dish (they will be touching slightly). Cover with clean kitchen towel and let rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400degF. Melt remaining butter.
- Brush tops of rolls with butter and place in the oven to bake for 20 minutes. Serve warm.
