Ingredients

2 - 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons instant dry yeast (1 pkg)
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup warm water
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon butter for topping

Instructions

In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine 1 cup of the flour, the sugar, yeast, salt and water.
2 - 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, 2 1/4 teaspoons instant dry yeast, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 3/4 cup warm water
Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter and add that to the mixer bowl. Mix everything until combined and smooth.
2 tablespoons butter
Continue to add in flour until the dough is tacky, but not sticky, and starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover. Allow to double in size, about 45 minutes.
Spray a 9-inch pie dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Punch down the dough, then divide into 12 equal portions. Form each of the portions into a roll and place in the prepared dish, 9 around the outside and 3 in the middle.
Cover and allow to rise until doubled again, about 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
Uncover the rolls and bake until the tops are golden, about 14-15 minutes.
Remove the rolls from the oven and brush the remaining tablespoon of butter over the tops of the rolls.
1 tablespoon butter
