Ok here is the roll recipe ... It make beautiful large Rolls and Lots of em.
4 Cups Warm (not hot) Water
4 Tbs. Yeast
1 Tbs. Sugar
3/4 Tbs. Salt
Mix these ingredients together and let the Yeast Activate. (It looks like it sinks & then it explodes)
When This is done Add
2 Eggs
1/2 Cup Sugar
1 stick of Butter softened
4-5 Cups of Flour
Once these are mixed in well start adding flour. You will continue to add Flour until you have added between 10-12 Cups Total. The dough should start to pull away from the bowl if you are using a kitchen Aid / Bosch type mixer. Once the dough is complete you will remove it form the bowl and Knead the dough on a counter or table thoroughly. If you are Using a Bosch I let it kneed for a 1 -1 & 1/2 Minutes.
Next Place it in a large bowl to Rise (for about an Hour If I'm using the Slow Rise Yeast) The dough Should about Double in Size.
Take the Dough and form it into rolls by Tucking the dough into the bottom ofthe roll. I push up with my middle & Index finger creating a circle with the index and thumb of the other hand and create a ball around my fingers...Pinching it back together at the bottom. It is difficult to describe but . This should give it the nice perfect round look. Don't make them too big because they are going to rise again and should double in size during rising / baking.The trick here is use a little butter or Pam on your hands to keep it from sticking to you.
Once you have formed the rolls place them on a greased pan. Let them Rise again till they have about doubled in size. Cook for about 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
This recipe is one that took me 3 Try's to get mine to look the way my sisters Do but once I got the Hang of it It was Easy. I use the Large Pans from Sam's Club and This recipe make 2 Pans Full. The trick is not making the Rolls too big and keeping them away from the sides a bit to leave room for expansion. I fit is for a smaller group just cut the recipe in half. I use slow rise yeast.My sister uses quick rise. If you have questions let me know.
This the The batch I made this morning.
