36 rolls
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | pack | Active dry yeast |
| 1½ | cup | Warm water (110' to 115'F) |
| ¼ | cup | Sugar |
| 5 | cups | To 5 1/2 C unsifted all-purpose flour |
| ½ | cup | (1 stick) butter, softened |
| 2 | Large eggs | |
| 1 | teaspoon | Salt |
| 2 | tablespoons | Milk |
Directions
1. In large bowl, sprinkle yeast over ½ C warm water. Stir in sugar and let mixture stand until foamy-about 5 minutes.
2. With wooden spoon, beat 4½ C flour, the remaining 1 C warm water, 4 T (½ stick) butter, 1 egg, and the salt into the yeast mixture until smooth. Stir in enough additiona1 flour to make a manageable dough.
3. Tom dough out onto lightly floured surface. Knead dough, adding more of the remaining flour if necessary, until dough is smooth and elastic-about 8 to 10 minutes.
4. Wash, dry, and lightly oil mixing bowl. Place dough in oiled bowl, turning to bring oiled side up. Cover with clean cloth; let dough rise in warm place, away from drafts, until double in size-50 to 60 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, in small bowl, beat remaining egg and the milk to make egg wash.
6. When dough has doubled, melt remaining 4 T butter. Brush thirty-six 1 ½-inch muffin-pan C with 2 T of the melted butter.
7. With floured rolling pin, roll out dough into a 15-inch square.
Brush top with remaining melted butter and then brush with some of egg wash. Cut dough into twelve 1 ¼-inch strips. Cut each dough strip in half crosswise. Stack 4 strips dough on top of one another and cut into 1 ¼-inch-square pieces to make fantan rolls. Repeat with remaining strips of dough. 8. Place rolls, with a cut edge up, in prepared muffin-pan C. Cover with clean cloth; let rolls rise, away from drafts, until double in size-35 to 45 minutes.
9. Heat oven to 350'F. Brush tops of rolls with remaining egg wash.
Bake rolls 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool fantan rolls completely on wire rack; store in airtight container up to two days.
10. Fantan rolls can be frozen, tightly wrapped, for several weeks. To reheat, defrost rolls; heat oven to 400'F. Sprinkle rolls with a little water, wrap in aluminum foil, and heat in oven 5 to 10 minutes.
