Really yummy! This is the recipe Bobbi uses. Which, I recently learned came from one of our Moms best friends, Cathy Clagget. She gave it to Bobbi when I was little.
Fluffy and light, and oh so yummy! The dough is easy to work with
2 C warm water
2 tsp sugar
2 pkgs yeast
3 C milk
1/2 C sugar
1/2 C vegetable oil
1 Tbsp salt
9-10 C white flour
Mix together warm water, 2 tsp sugar and yeast. Mix until yeast is dissolved. Let sit until it foams. Takes about 15 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup sugar, oil, salt and milk. Add in four gradually until it forms a dough that is no longer sticky. Sometimes it doesn’t take all of the flour. Knead on floured surface approximately 5 minutes until dough is smooth. Put in a greased bowl, cover lightly. Keep in a warm spot. Let rise 2-21/2 hours until doubled. Push down. Form into egg sized balls. Put in a greased pan, just touching. Let rise for 30 min-1 hour (depends on how warm it is), until touching. Bake at 350 40-45 min until golden brown.
Some people brush the tops with butter when they come out of the oven. I sometimes do, but don’t really notice much difference either way. It does make the tops softer
