Preparation
Step 1
For dough: In a large bowl, combine yeast, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 11⁄4 cups warm water. Let stand until foamy, approximately 5 minutes. Add remaining 1 tablespoon sugar, salt, butter, egg, and flour. Stir until a soft dough forms that pulls away from the side of bowl. Cover tightly and refrigerate overnight. (Dough will rise slightly.)
Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a 13x9-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; press dough with fingertips. Divide dough into 15 pieces; roll into balls. Place balls 1 inch apart in prepared pan. Cover, and let rise in a warm draft-free place (85°) until doubled in size, approximately 30 minutes.
Uncover dough. Bake until very lightly browned on top, about 30 minutes. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with salt. Serve warm.
