MIMI'S ROLLS

Mimi's Rolls image

These are the rolls that I have been making for years. The recipe makes a lot of them. You can make Parmesan Cheese Fingers with part of it or all of it (directions follow). They are so good. Keep dough soft for fluffy rolls.

Categories Yeast Breads

Time 3h30m

Yield 4-5 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 (1/4 ounce) packages dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1 cup lukewarm water
2 cups scalded milk (cooled to lukewarm)
2/3 cup melted butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 eggs (beaten)
9 cups flour

Steps:

Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the lukewarm water; let proof for about 15 minutes.
Add the lukewarm milk, butter, sugar, and salt; mix well.
Add 4 cups of the flour and mix well.
Add the beaten eggs and mix well.
Add the last of the flour adding only enough to get a soft dough (probably will need most of it).
Place on floured board and knead for about 3 minutes.
Place in a greased bowl and rise once--about 1-1 1/2 hours.
Make rolls and place on a greased pan.
Rise till rounded in pan--about 1 hour--don't over-rise.
Bake in a 375-400 degree oven for about 10-15 minutes--if they are getting too brown, cover them with a piece of foil.
CHEESE FINGERS: Make dough fingers about 2"-3" long; dip one side in melted butter and then in parmesan cheese--bake.

Tips:

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
Follow the recipe carefully, but don't be afraid to make adjustments to suit your own taste.
If you don't have a stand mixer, you can knead the dough by hand. Just be sure to knead it for at least 10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will help the rolls to be light and fluffy.
Bake the rolls at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help them to get a golden brown color and a crispy crust.
Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. This will help them to hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Mimi's rolls are a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are perfect for sandwiches, burgers, or simply served with butter and jam. With a little practice, you can easily make these rolls at home. So next time you are looking for a delicious and easy bread recipe, give Mimi's rolls a try.
