Yield
Basic Sweet Roll Dough
Ingredients
- 6–7 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup sugar
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 pkg active dry yeast
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup margarine or butter
- 1 egg
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, sugar, salt, and yeast; mix well. In a small saucepan, heat water, milk, and butter until very warm (120–130°F). Add warm liquid and egg to the flour mixture; blend at low speed until moistened. Beat 3 minutes at medium speed. By hand, stir in an additional 3 cups flour until the dough pulls cleanly away from the sides of the bowl.
- On a floured surface, knead in 1–2 cups flour until the dough is smooth and elastic, 8–10 minutes. Place dough in a greased bowl and cover loosely with greased plastic wrap and a cloth towel. Let rise in a warm place (80–85°F) until light and doubled in size, 45–60 minutes.
- Punch down the dough several times to remove all air bubbles. Divide dough in half.
