Rolls






Ingredients:
1 cup water
1 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 tsp. salt
1 cold cup of water
2 pkgs. yeast ( or I used 4 1/2 teaspoons)
1/2 cup warm water
4 eggs (beaten)
7 1/2 cups flour
butter for the tops


Directions:

In a 6 quart pan bring 1 cup of water to a boil then add the 1 cup of butter, sugar and salt to the pan. Take it off the heat and add 1 cold cup of water. Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup of warm water. When the first mixture is luke warm you add the yeast mixture and eggs. Stir for a second. Then add the flour. Stir together. Cover pan and refrigerate over night.

Divide it into 3rds. Roll it out into a circle and cut with a pizza cutter into triangle for croissants or make whatever shape you want. Butter the cookie sheets. Then let them rise for 4 hours and top with melted butter.

Place them on baking sheets. 12 rolls per sheet.

Now pop them in the oven for 400 * degrees for 10 minutes.
The Results:
YUMMY! These were so good. They are going to be perfect with Easter dinner.
* I got the recipe from my little sister.

Wow,
These rolls look beautiful! I am always so envious of great bread makers, that's certainly not my forte'. Just found your blog. Great recipes!
