Lynda Olsen's Parker House Rolls

YIELDS ~24 rolls
Bake @ 400 degrees for 10-13 minutes

1 cup milk
1/3 cup oil
1/2 cup warm water 2 eggs
4 1/2 cups flour (or less)
1 1/2 Tbs quick rise yeast
1/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp salt

Mix 3 cups of the flour, yeast, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl. Microwave milk for about 1 minute. Pour hot milk into large mixing bowl, add oil and water. Lightly beat eggs and add to milk mixture. While liquid is just warmer than luke warm, slowly start to add the flour mixture until all has been added. Then continue to add the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour, keeping dough sticky. Let rise until doubled, generally about one hour.


Roll out onto lightly floured surface about 1/2 inch thick. Cut into 3" circles with a round cookie cutter or floured rim of cup. Dip into butter covering entire roll. Fold in half on cookie sheet and press edge of top layer into bottom of roll to prevent unfolding as the rolls cook. Bake @ 400 degrees for 10-13 minutes.
