Dinner Rolls

Dinner Rolls

I got this one from my sister. I have a hard time getting yeast to rise for some reason, but these usually turn out for me.

3 1/2 c flour
1/4 c sugar
1/4 c butter, soft
1 t salt
1 T yeast (or one packet)
1/2 c water
1/2 c milk
1 egg

Mix water and milk in a saucepan. Heat slowly to 120 degrees. Remove from heat and add yeast. In an electric mixer, combine 2 c flour, sugar, butter, salt, egg and yeast mixture. Beat for one minute. Add the rest of the flour and mix. Knead on a greased and LIGHTLY floured surface for a couple minutes. Let rise covered. Shape into rolls in a greased pan. Let rise again. Bake at 375 degrees for 12-15 minutes. Add butter to the tops if desired.
