YIELD: 15 Rolls
1 cups water
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon active-dry yeast
3.5 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
extra melted butter, for brushing on top
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a 9 x 13-inch pan and set aside.
2. Put water, butter, milk and honey into a microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup. Microwave the mixture for 1 minute, and give it a stir. Mixture should be warm to the touch (between 95°F-115°F). If not warm enough, microwave in 15 second increments until correct temperature.
3. Put yeast into mixing bowl. Stir in heated liquid mix. Stir and let stand 5-10 minutes until the yeast is foamy.
4. Add in 3.5 cups of flour and the salt.
5. Mix on low speed until the dry ingredients are combined. If the dough is sticking to the sides of the bowl, add in 1/4 cup more flour at a time until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and is only slightly sticky to the touch. (DO NOT EXCEED 4 cups of flour). Knead the dough for 5 minutes on med-low speed. Then form the dough into a ball with your hands and transfer it to a greased bowl.
6. Cover the bowl with a damp towel and let it rise for 15 minutes.
7. Gently punch the dough down and divide into 15 equal-sized pieces. Shape the rolls and put into the prepared pan. Cover the dish again with a damp towel or paper towel, and let the dough balls rise for an additional 15-20 minutes.
8. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the rolls are lightly golden brown on top and cooked through between (185°F-190°F).
9. Remove the baking dish from the oven, and brush the tops of the rolls with butter.
10. Serve warm. And enjoy!
