These rolls are a huge hit at our house, and are frequently requested for special birthday breakfasts. This isn't my only sweet roll recipe, but I like it because it can be made ahead of time.
To that, you add a mixture of warm milk, butter, salt and sugar. To make things simple, I combine all of this in a glass measuring cup and microwave it until it’s 120 degrees.
Once you’ve added the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients, add an egg and beat the dough for 2-3 minutes. The dough will be really soft at this point.
