No Fail Rolls

This is the easiest recipe for rolls ever! And you can't mess them up!

1 cup milk or water
1 cube butter
Melt these together in the microwave.

1/2 cup hot water
1 Tbsp. dry yeast
1 tsp sugar
Put this in a bowl and wait for it to activate or bloom. The longer you wait the better it works. I suggest at least 10 minutes.

3 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
4 cups flour (I use 2 c. all-purpose and 2 c. whole wheat ground myself.)


In a large bowl with a lid, beat the eggs, sugar and salt, then add the milk butter and stir. Stir in one cup of flour and then the yeast mixture and then the rest of the flour one cup at a time. Mix well.


The dough is very sticky!


Place the lid on the bowl and put it in the refrigerator overnight or at least five hours.


Two to three hours before your meal, cut the dough in half. Roll 1/2 out on a well floured surface in a circle.


Using a pizza cutter make the dough into 16 pieces.


Roll each piece up beginning from the wide end to the poing so they look like a crescent roll.


Place each roll on a parchment covered cookie sheet. (I skip the parchment.)


Repeat with the other half.


Let the rolls rise to double their size. Bake at 350 until golden brown.
