Ingredients
- 2 cups lukewarm water
- 1 (0.25-ounce) package yeast
- 4 1/2 cups self-rising flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup (1-1/2 sticks) butter, melted
- 1 egg
Preparation
Step 1
These are a real Southern favorite 'cause the dough can be made ahead and kept in the fridge for weeks. That makes it easy to bake up some fresh rolls anytime we get drop-ins!
Preheat the oven to 400 degree F. In a small bowl, combine the water and yeast and let stand for 5 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; mix well. Add the yeast mixture and whisk for several minutes until the dough is smooth.
Makes about 3 dozen.
If you do make this dough to have on hand in the fridge, keep it tightly covered. Then, when you're ready to enjoy fresh rolls, just drop and bake the dough as directed.
