Best Ever Rolls


½ c. Water (116 degrees if yeast is refrigerated, 110 if it is not)
1 Tbs. Sugar
2 Tbs. Yeast
2 c. Milk
1 cube Butter
2 tsp. Salt
¾ c. Sugar
4 Eggs
7-8 c. Flour (I usually do 2 c. of wheat, the rest white)

Dissolve yeast & 1 Tbs. of sugar in warm water. Set aside until foamy. Heat the milk, butter, salt, and sugar in the microwave for 3 min. until scalded. Add 3C. flour to milk mixture. Mix. I use a flat beater on speed 1 on KitchenAid until dough thickens then switch to a dough hook on speed 2 for the rest.  Add yeast to mixture. Mix. Add eggs. Mix. Add 2C. more flour . Mix. Add 1C. Flour. Mix. Add remaining flour as needed to make soft dough(I usually have to add some extra to make the dough not too sticky). Mix. Let rise 1 hour or until double. Roll out dough into large circle, butter top with melted butter, cut into triangles with pizza cutter and roll into crescents. Or you can roll into little balls and put in a greased muffin pan. Let rise 1 more hour or until double or just over the top of the pan. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes, butter tops.
