~ Texas Roadhouse Rolls -
"YES" The Real Recipe ~
Ingredients:
4 tsp. active dry yeast
1/2 c. warm water
2 c. milk, scalded and cooled
to lukewarm
3 Tbl. of melted butter,
slightly cooled
1/2 c. sugar
2 quarts all purpose flour
(7-8 cups)
2 whole eggs
2 tsp. salt
Dissolve yeast in warm water
with a teaspoon of sugar; let stand until frothy.
Combine yeast mixture, milk,
1/2 cup sugar and enough flour to make a medium
batter (about the consistency
of pancake batter). Beat thoroughly. Add melted
butter, eggs and salt. Beat
well. Add enough flour to form a soft dough. Sprinkle a
small amount of flour onto
counter and let dough rest. Meanwhile, grease a large
bowl. Knead dough until
smooth and satiny and put in greased bowl; turn over to
grease top. (I used the dough
hook on my Kitchen-Aid to knead this for about 4-5
minutes). Cover and let rise
in a warm place until double in bulk. Punch down.
Turn out onto a floured
board. Divide into portions for shaping; let rest 10 minutes.
Shape dough into desired
forms. Place on greased baking sheets. Let rise until doubled.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15
minutes or until golden brown. Baste immediately
with butter. Yield: 5 to 6
dozen. Serve with Cinnamon Honey Butter.
*Extra Tips: Shape the rolls
into a rectangle, about 1/2-inch thick, then fold it in
half, making it an inch
thick. Roll over the dough to seal the two halves and using
a dough scraper, cut them
into squares and place them on the baking sheet
