Yummy Crescent Rolls


From Carissa C.

¼ C warm water
1 T dry yeast
½ C butter, melted
1 C milk
3 eggs
½ C granulated sugar
¾ t salt
5 C all purpose flour, sifted

Combine water and yeast, and allow to proof for 5 minutes.  Wisk eggs and sugar together.  Melt butter and add cold milk.  Wisk into egg mixture.  Add yeast mixture, sifted flour and salt, and mix into a soft dough.  Cover and place in a warm place to rise for 1 hour.  Cover bowl with lid or plastic wrap, and place in refrigerator over night (up to 2 days).  Remove dough from refrigerator and divide cold dough in half.  Roll ½ dough into a large circle on a floured surface.  Using a pizza cutter, cut dough into 12 pizza-type slices.  Starting at larger end, roll slices into crescents, and place on a greased baking sheet.  Cover and place in a warm place to rise for 1 hour.  Repeat process with second half of dough. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 18 minutes.  Butter tops of hot rolls and eat. Recipe makes 24 rolls.
