Servings: 12 rolls
Calories: 267kcal
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup milk whole milk (warm - about 110 degrees)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg +1 egg yolk lightly beaten
- 1 tbsp instant yeast
- 3 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1 3/4 tsp kosher sea salt
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter room temperature
- 4 tbsp salted butter melted
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add milk, sugar, egg, and egg yolk. Sprinkle the yeast over the top and allow it to sit until foamy, about 4-5 minutes.
- Add flour and kosher salt, and mix until combined, about 2 minutes. Switch to the dough hook and knead on low for 1 minute. Add 8 tablespoons of softened butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Knead until the dough forms a soft, sticky ball, about 5 minutes.
- Place the dough in a large, well-greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise until doubled, about 1 ½ hours. Punch the dough to deflate, then place onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into two rectangles, about 14×16 inches in size.
- Using a pizza wheel or pastry wheel, cut each of the rectangles vertically into 6 strips (they should be short, about 14 inches in length), for a total of 12 strips. Using a pastry brush, butter the tops of all but two strips (you’ll use about 2 tablespoons of the melted butter). Stack 5 strips on top of each other, then place the unbuttered strip on top. Repeat with the remaining strips. Cut each stack into 6 equal squares for a total of 12 stacks.
- Place into a well-greased standard-size muffin tin, and cut side up. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (about 175 degrees Celsius).
- When the rolls have risen, remove the plastic wrap and place in the oven to bake for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown on the tops. Remove from the oven and brush with the remaining melted butter. Remove from the pan and serve while warm.
