Dinner Rolls

Rachel made these for Easter this year. They were light and fluffy. The original recipe calls them 'unbelievable rolls' and they are pretty unbelievable. Pictured here are the pretty ones, it took a little while to figure out the proper technique to get the nice smooth round finish (see below). Luckily they still tasted great no matter how they looked. Take note when making these about the prep time, the need to rise for about 30 minutes three times.

recipe from allrecipes.com
3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
5 teaspoons active dry yeast
5 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup margarine, melted

Heat milk, water, sugar and salt over medium heat
Remove from heat and mix in eggs and yeast*
Put flour into a large bowl and make well in center
Poor in liquid mixture, do not stir, and let sit for 20 to 30 minutes, covered
Add melted butter and mix well (hands work fine here or likely a wooden spoon)
Add more flour if sticky (I'm pretty sure it was very sticky)
Cover and let rise for 20 to 30 minutes
Shape the dough into the rolls** and let rise again for ~30minutes
Bake rolls in a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes, or until done (rolls will be slightly browned)

* If the liquid is too hot when you add the yeast, it will kill the yeast. Lukewarm to warm is probably the best.
** To create the "nice smooth round finish" roll dough into a ball. Turn the roll "inside out" by pushing up from the bottom, through the middle, while pulling out and down to "tuck under" the top of the roll.
