Five's a crowd: Dinner Rolls

This was my first time making dinner rolls, and I'll be upfront and say - I used a bread machine. It didn't make them any less delicious. They were so good the boys had them for a snack with the left over brownies the next day.

The final product

This is supposed to yield 18 rolls, I smooshed them into 12.

3 1/4 c. bread flour

1/4 c. sugar

1 1/2 tsp salt

3 Tbsp dry milk (I always use dried buttermilk in my bread)

3 Tbsp butter

7 1/2 fl. oz. water

1 1/2 tsp. dry yeast

Put in machine on dough setting. (Ha!)

When the dough is done, pull it out, cut into however many you want and roll the pieces into balls.

Prep for final proof

These were hideous, because I realized only too late that I only had space for 12. So I could have used another pan, but to be honest Dr. Fabulous was already going to kill me for using every pot, pan, and dish we own.

After the final proof, brush the tops with a beaten egg. You could also sprinkle sesame or poppy seeds on top at this point.
