My friend is making yeast rolls for the first time, there is something wrong with the recipe from

I use one from sunset magazine's old "Bread" cookbook. It has milk, melted butter, eggs, Recipe to

Sunset's Basic Dinner Rolls (1973)
1 pkg dry yeast
1/4 c warm water
2 eggs, plus enough scalded & cooled milk to make 2 cups liquid (I use about 1.5 cups water w/ powdered milk equivalent)
1/2 cup melted & cooled salted butter
1-1.5 tsp salt (I use the 1 tsp)
1/3 c-1/2 c suagr
5.5-6 c AP flour

Makes 32-36 rolls
Typical directions, 1 rise (about 1-2 hours, til doubled), punch down divide into 4 parts, wrap in Pam sprayed plastic wrap, let rest in fridge for 1/2 hour so the rolls will be easier to form. Shape rolls into balls using 1 quarter at a time. Divide each portion into 8ths or 9ths & form rolls. Place on Silpat-lined pans (or you could place them next to each other in round cake pans.)Cover with the plastic wrap and let rise again until amost double. Bake at 400-425 for about 10 minutes. Remove to rack, cool. You can freeze individually at this point, then bag them.

 
JudyW, I made your icebox butterhorns, but they turned into 2 of the best loaves of bread I've ever

made. Thank you so much. I forgot to let it rise before I put it in the fridge. So, I put 1/2 in my bread maker, and my turkey took extra time. Everyone raved about that bread.

 
Another thank you here for JudyW's icebox butterhorns! I am -

eating one filled with turkey for breakfast right now! So easy and so good. It was only the 2 of us for dinner so I halved the recipe and now I wish I had made the whole recipe. I may have to hide the last 2 before DH gets home from work today smileys/smile.gif

Thanks JudyW!

 
I was so excited to see how well it turned out up here at 8600 ft! Baking is so often hit and miss

I'm going to try your idea of baking the recipes into loaves!
