Steps

  1. Stir milk, yeast and sugar in a large bowl. Add egg, softened butter, salt and 3 cups flour and mix into a shaggy dough.
  2. Knead 6–8 minutes, adding flour a spoonful at a time, until smooth and only slightly tacky.
  3. Cover and let rise in a warm spot until doubled, about 1 hour.
  4. Divide into 15 pieces, roll into balls, and set in a greased 9×13-inch pan. Cover and rise until puffy, 45 minutes. Heat oven to 375°F.
  5. Bake 18–20 minutes until golden. Brush with melted butter while hot.
Tip: Shape the day before, cover, and refrigerate overnight; let them sit out 1 hour before baking.
