BUTTERFLAKE DINNER ROLLS RECIPE

Steps:

• Put the butter cubes, sugar and salt in the bowl of a mixer.
• Scald the buttermilk over medium high heat on the stove top and pour it over the ingredients in the mixing bowl.
• Once the butter is melted and the mixture is just warm to the touch, combine the yeast and water in a small bowl to activate. I like to add a sprinkle of sugar to the yeast to speed up the activation. Once foamy pour into the mixing bowl.
• Add the egg and 2 cups of the flour.
• With the paddle attachment, mix at a low speed until your ingredients come together. Then mix for 5 minutes at medium speed.
• Add the last cup of flour and mix until no white streaks remain. Remember this is a batter dough so it's not going to come together in a ball like a bread dough.
• Scrape the sides of the bowl down and cover with a dish towel to rise until doubled. This will take a little more than an hour.
• Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface, into a rectangle a quarter inch thick. Try to make it a definite rectangle shape the best you can. Spread a light layer of softened butter over the dough (about 1 Tbs. or a little less).
• Using a sharp knife or my preference, a pizza wheel, cut the rectangle of dough into 1 1/2 inch wide strips. They don't have to be exact. You want to get 10-12 strips of dough. You don't want the strips wider than 1 1/2 inches and no less than an inch wide. You just want each strip to be roughly the same width.
• You can either stack 5 strips of dough and cut them into 2 inch stacks. Place each stack in a greased muffin tin. If you had extra single strips of dough just cut them in 2 inch pieces and make stacks of 5 pieces....OR
• You can cut each single strip into 2 inch pieces.
• Stack 5 pieces together and place them in a muffin tin that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. If you have less than 5 pieces left at the end either slip and extra piece in with another roll or just put what's left together.
• Let rise until doubled (about 45 minutes)
• Bake at 350 degrees for 15-18 minutes.
• Cool slightly before serving.

BUTTERMILK ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat the buttermilk, butter and sugar in a pot until simmering; whisk in the baking soda, then let cool to lukewarm. Meanwhile, put 1/4 cup lukewarm water in a bowl and stir in the yeast; let stand 5 minutes. Whisk the yeast mixture into the buttermilk mixture.
• Whisk the flour and salt together in a large bowl. Add the liquid and mix until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough in the bowl until it comes together and is smooth, about 2 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand 30 minutes.
• Butter a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. Divide the dough into 12 pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Arrange the balls in the buttered dish. Lightly cover with plastic wrap and let rise until nearly doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Bake the rolls until puffed and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm.
