These rolls have butter, butter, and more butter, and are definitely not "healthy", but they are delicious, which is infinitely more fun. This recipe makes a lot of rolls, but can easily be cut in half if you don't have a huge gathering.
Bake some up and bite into the best rolls you will ever eat!
Buttery Crescent Rolls
Ingredients:
2 Tbs yeast
2 c. warm water
1 c. melted butter (plus more for brushing)
1 c. sugar
6 beaten eggs
2 tsp salt
8-10 c flour
Directions:
Mix together the yeast, water and sugar and let sit for 5 minutes. Beat the melted butter and beaten eggs together, then add to the yeast mixture and stir thoroughly. Add salt and flour. Mix well with a wooden spoon. Brush the top of the dough with additional melted butter. Cover. Let rise 2 hours in a warm place.
Punch down the dough and cut into 4 equal portions. Knead briefly, then roll each portion into 1/4" thick circle, brush with melted butter, and cut into wedges (depending on how big you want the rolls to be, you can cut between 8 and 12 wedges) Roll up from the large end to the small end, place on a baking sheet and brush with melted butter. Let rise til double in size.
Bake at 400 for 10 minutes or until golden. Brush with butter.
Enjoy!
These are awesome! I really, really rolls!
