Ingredients
1 Tbs. yeast
1/3 C. warm water
1 tsp. sugar (for yeast mixture)
1 C. lukewarm milk
3/4 C. sugar
1 1/2 Tbs. butter, melted and slightly cooled
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs
5 C. flour
Directions
Dissolve yeast in warm water with a teaspoon of sugar in the bowl of stand mixer. Once yeast has dissolved and is bubbly, add milk, sugar and 1 cup of flour. Beat thoroughly on medium speed. Let stand for about 2 minutes until foamy. Add melted butter, eggs and salt. Beat well.
Add the remaining flour slowly, until a soft dough forms. Note do not use more than 5 cups of flour. You want a soft and slightly sticky dough.
Knead dough in mixer for about 4 minutes, until smooth and satiny. Cover bowl with warm wet towel or plastic wrap and let double in size. Then remove from bowl and place on lightly floured surface. Roll dough out into a rectangle that is 1/2 inch thick. Carefully handling dough, fold over making a smaller rectangle that is 1 inch thick. Slice dough into squares and place on greased cookie sheet. Spray with pam and cover with plastic wrap and let double in size again. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-18 minutes until lightly golden brown. Remove from oven.
