Instructions
1
In a bread machine, combine warm water, warm milk, beaten egg, softened butter or margarine, sugar, salt, all-purpose flour, and dry yeast in the order recommended by your machine's manufacturer.
2
Select the dough cycle and start the machine. Let it mix and rise until the dough is doubled in size, approximately 1 hour.
3
Once the dough has risen, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
4
On a lightly floured surface, punch down the risen dough and divide it into 20-24 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball.
5
Grease one or two baking pans and place the dough balls in the pans, spaced evenly apart.
6
Melt 1/4 cup of butter or margarine and brush it generously over the tops of the dough balls. Reserve any excess melted butter for brushing after baking.
7
Cover the pans with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and allow the rolls to rise in a warm place until they have doubled in size, about 30-45 minutes.
8
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the rolls sound hollow when tapped.
9
Remove from the oven and immediately brush with the reserved melted butter for added flavor and shine.
10
Enjoy fresh, or store in an airtight container for later. This dough can also be shaped into crescents, cinnamon rolls, or sticky buns for an alternate twist!
