I learned how to make rolls last week with my friends Tamra and Wendy. We had decided to get together each month and share a talent with each other. Wendy shared with us her family roll recipe. I love these rolls and it is so fun to make them and deliver them to friends- people literally freak out over homemade rolls. I will say it was rather time consuming but I loved every minute of it. The next day I decided to make some in my kitchen only I had three extra kids playing at my house and I ended up spilling half of a Sam's club size of vegetable oil all over my kitchen floor (anyone who has ever had to clean an oil spill is feeling for me right now I am sure) I decided that you should only make these rolls when you can focus and there isn't much chaos surrounding you! Here is the recipe:
- 4 c. scalded milk (heat milk in a saucepan until it is super hot)
- 1 c. sugar
- 1 c. oil (careful on this one- ha)
- 4 eggs
- 1T. salt
- 3 pkg of yeast
- *mix together sugar, oil, eggs, salt and milk
- stir in yeast
- add 5 c. of flour- mix and let sit until it is bubbly
- add 5 more cups of flour
- Knead dough
- scrape out of bowl
- oil bowl
- place kneaded dough back into bowl and let it rise
- punch it out and knead
- let it rise a second time
- Divide dough into 4 balls
- roll out each ball into a flat circle and spread butter on dough
- using a pizza cutter cut 16 triangles (like you would with a pizza
- starting with the wide end of the triangle roll it like a croissant and place on an ungreased cookie sheet
- Bake at 350 for around 20 minutes
