Ingredients
water
1 2/3 cups (Warm to about 110°F (43°C))
powdered milk
2 tablespoons (No preparation required)
shortening or butter
2 tablespoons (Melted)
sugar
2 tablespoons (No preparation required)
salt
1 1/2 teaspoons (No preparation required)
white flour
4 1/3 cups (Or 4 1/2 cups in the USA)

Instructions
1
Begin by measuring out the ingredients in the order listed and adding them to the baking pan of your bread machine.
2
Select the 'Dough' cycle option on your bread machine and start the machine.
3
Once the dough cycle has completed, lightly flour a clean work surface and turn the dough out onto it. If the dough feels sticky, gradually knead in just enough additional flour until manageable.
4
Divide the dough into 12-18 equal pieces, depending on how large you want your rolls. Shape each piece into a smooth ball using your hands.
5
Arrange the dough balls in two greased 8-inch square cake pans, placing them close together (almost touching) for a soft texture.
6
Cover the pans with a clean kitchen towel and allow the rolls to rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes, or until they have nearly doubled in size.
7
Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Gently brush the tops of the rolls with a mixture of the beaten egg and the tablespoon of water for a shiny glaze.
8
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
9
Once baked, carefully remove the rolls from the pans and let them cool on wire racks. Serve warm and enjoy!
