1 cup very warm water
1/2 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup milk, scalded
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs, well beaten
4-5 cups flour
1/4-1/2 cup softened butter
Combine melted butter and milk. Stir in sugar, salt and eggs. While that is cooling (I put it in the freezer), soften yeast in water. Sprinkle a pinch of sugar on top. Once it's big and bubbly and the egg mixture is room temperature, stir it all together. Stir in enough flour to make a soft dough. Don't add too much! Cover and allow to rise for 3-4 hours, or until doubled. turn out onto lightly floured board, knead just to coat dough with flour. Dough is very soft and should remain so. Divide in two. Roll each half into a circle. Spread each circle with softened butter. Cut, pie-fashion, into 16 pieces. Roll each piece loosely from large end to small. Place on greased cookie sheet. Allow to rise to double in size. Bake 10-12 minutes at 375.
