Servings: 36 rolls
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk warmed to 100°F to 110°F
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter room temperature
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 ¼ teaspoons (1 package) instant yeast
- 3 large eggs beaten
- 4 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 6 tablespoons salted butter melted (for brushing)
Instructions
- Add the milk, butter, sugar, and salt to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Mix until the butter and sugar are dissolved, 4-6 minutes.8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 cup whole milk
- Add beaten eggs, flour, and the instant yeast. Using the dough hook, knead the dough on medium speed until it is smooth and beginning to pull away from the sides of the bowl, 6-8 minutes. The dough will be soft and slightly tacky.3 large eggs, 4 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 ¼ teaspoons (1 package) instant yeast
- Knead the dough into a smooth ball and place it in a large oiled bowl to rise. Cover and put the bowl in a warm place to rise until doubled, about 1 to 1 ½ hours.
- Once risen, punch down the dough and cut it in thirds. Shape each third into a ball and knead out any air bubbles. Roll out each dough ball to a 15-inch circle (about ¼-inch thick) on a lightly floured surface. Brush with melted butter, then cut into 12 triangles, as one would for a pizza. Start by cutting in quarters, then each quarter into three triangles. Take one triangle, stretch the end slightly, then roll up tightly. Pinch the ends to create a seal, then place the pinched end down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Let the prepared butterhorns rise until they are about doubled in size (about 1 to 1 ½ hours). For a total of three sheet pans with 12 butterhorns each.
- Place into a preheated 350°F oven and bake for 8-15 minutes, switching racks and watching carefully to ensure the tops and bottoms do not overbake but turn lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and brush with melted butter. Let cool but serve warm.6 tablespoons salted butter
