2 cups Warm Milk
8 tablespoons Butter, Salted Or Unsalted
⅓ cup Sugar
1 teaspoon Salt

Dissolve the yeast in ¼ cup of the milk and proof. Meanwhile, melt the butter in the rest of the milk and then combine with the sugar and salt in a bowl. Cool.

Add the beaten eggs and yeast. Add enough flour to make a dough the consistency of honey and beat well. Place in a buttered bundt or tube pan or 24 muffin tins and let rise about 30 mins, until doubled in bulk.

Bake at 350 F about 30 mins (25 mins for muffins), until a straw stuck in comes out clean. Serve warm, or slice for toast.

Make 1 bundt cake or 24 muffins.
