Lion House Rolls

Since I have been married I discovered my love for cooking. I have made different kids of breads before but never have made any rolls. I finally tried these rolls and they were DELICIOUS!

Ingredients:
2 C warm water
2/3 C nonfat dry milk
2 Tablespoons active dry yeast
1/4 C sugar
2 Teaspoons salt
1/3 C butter, shortening, or margarine
1 egg
4 1/2-5 C all-purpose flour
1/2 C butter, melted

Instructions:
-In a large bowl combine water and milk powder, stir until powder dissolves. Add yeast, then sugar, salt, butter, egg, and 2 C flour. Mix on low speed with an electric mixer until ingredients are wet. Increase speed to medium and mix for 2 minutes. Add 2 cups flour, mix on low and then medium for 2 minutes. Dough will get still, you may need to mix by hand. Add remaining flour, 1/2 C at a time until the dough is soft, not too sticky and not too stiff.
-Scrape dough of sides of bowl and pour about 1 tablespoon of oil all around the sides of the bowl. Turn the dough over in bowl so it is covered with oil. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
-Sprinkle surface with flour and roll dough out until its about 1" thick. Cut and shape the dough into desired shape. Place on greased pan, cover with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size (about 1 1/2 hours).
-Bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Brush melted butter on the top of rolls while still hot. Makes 1 1/2-3 dozen rolls.
