Ingredients

– Flour – Active dry yeast – Milk – Sugar – Salt – Butter or Oil

In a large mixer bowl, combine 2 cups of the flour and the yeast. Heat milk, sugar, salt, butter to 115-120 ° F. Add to dry mixture and beat 3 minutes.

Place dough in bowl, cover, and let rise 45 minutes. Punch dough down, cover, and let rest 10 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 ° F.

Step: 2

Step: 3

Divide dough into 16 pieces and form each into a ball. Let balls rest 5 minutes, then roll each into a 7-8 inch round.

Step: 4
