Sally Lunn Rolls - Hamburger Buns Recipe

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 F 10 minutes before the rolls are ready to be baked.
2. Heat the milk and butter until very warm, about 120F. Remove from heat. Stir until butter melts.
3. Combine 1 2/3 cups flour and the sugar, salt, and yeast in a large mixing bowl.
4. Add the warm liquids to the flour mixture. Beat with an electric mixer at medium speed for 2 minutes.
5. Gradually add 2/3 cup of flour and the eggs. Beat at high speed for 2 minutes. Add remaining flour. Mix well. The batter wil be thick.
6. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place until double in bulk, 1 to 1 1/4 hours.
7. Punch dough down. With floured hands, divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Shape into round domes, tucking edges under.
8. Place the rolls 4 inches apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise in a warm, draft-free place for 45 minutes.
9. Bake at 400 F for 20 minutes
