Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup warm milk
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast

- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting

Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Stir in melted butter, salt, and beaten eggs.
- Gradually add flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces.
- Shape each piece into a ball and place them in a greased 9×13 inch baking pan.
- Cover and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.

Notes
- Ensure milk is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast.
- Dough can be made ahead and refrigerated overnight.
- Adjust flour amount if dough is too sticky or too dry.
