Ingredients:

2.5 tsps

Kosher Salt

Directions:

1

Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray and set aside

2

Place the milk, sugar, yeast, flour, egg yolks, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment

3

Combine on low speed for 1 minute

4

Change the paddle attachment to the dough hook and rest the dough for 10 to 15 minutes

5

Add 2 ounces of the butter and mix on low speed

6

Increase the speed to medium and mix until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and you are able to gently pull the dough into a thin sheet that light will pass through, about 8 minutes

7

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and roll and shape with your hands to form a large ball

8

Return the dough to the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and set aside in a warm, dry place to rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour

9

Remove the dough from the bowl and roll into a 12 by 12-inch square, about 1/2-inch thick

10

Melt the remaining 1/2 ounce butter and brush onto the top of the dough

11

Use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into 12 (12 by 1-inch) strips

12

Stack the strips into 2 stacks of 6 strips each

13

Lay the stacks on their sides and cut each stack into 6 (2-inch) wide pieces

14

Lay each piece on its side into a prepared muffin tin cup

15

Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm, dry place to rise until doubled in size, 30 to 40 minutes

16

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F

17

Remove the plastic wrap and bake until the rolls reach an internal temperature of 200 degrees F, 8 to 10 minutes

18

Rotate the pan halfway through baking

19

Remove the muffin tin to a cooling rack and cool for 2 to 3 minutes before serving
