MISSION ROLLS

2 T. yeast
1/2 c. warm water
2 c. milk
1/2 c. butter cut in pieces
1/3 c. sugar
1 T. salt
3 c. flour
2 eggs
another 3 1/2 c. flour

Scald milk.
Soften yeast in warm water.
Put butter in scalded milk to almost melt.
In large mixing bowl combine sugar, salt, eggs, milk mixture, and whisk.
Add 3 cups flour, stir good or whisk until smooth.
Add yeast and 3 1/2 cups flour, stir well.
Let raise 1 - 1 1/2 hours.
Shape on sprayed pan, raise 30 -45 minutes.
Bake 400 degrees for 10 -12 minutes.  Makes 3-4 dozen.

One way to shape:
Roll thin (about 1/4 inch).  Cut in circles (with biscuit cutter maybe).  Brush melted butter on top of one (or just dust with  a little flour or just place two circles together) and cover with another circle, press down a little.
