I have a folder with old recipes in it I've clipped from different places over the years. This one I love. We really like homemade fresh dinner rolls, rolled up like croissants, but heavy & yummy like dinner rolls!
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup warm milk
1 egg
1/3 cup real butter, softened
1/3 cup white sugar
1 tsp. salt
3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 package active dry yeast (or .25 ounce)
1/4 cup butter, softened
Place water, milk, egg, 1/3 cup butter, sugar, salt, flour and yeast in the pan of your bread machine. Select Dough/Knead & First Rise cycle and let the machine do the work! Mine takes about 90 minutes.
When cycle finishes, turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide in half. Roll each half into a 12 inch circle and spread the 1/4 cup butter over the two rounds. Cut into 8 wedges.
Roll croissant style wedges starting at wide end, roll gently but tightly. Place point side down on greased cookie sheet (I use butter for this too!) Cover with clean kitchen towel and put in warm place to rise for about an hour. Preheat oven for 400 degrees, bake about 10-15 minutes until golden.
