Ingredients
  

Rolls

  • ½ cup water
  • ½ cup half and half
  • 2 ¼ t yeast
  • ⅓ cup honey
  • 3 T butter melted
  • 1 egg
  • 1 t salt
  • 4 cups flour

Honey Cinnamon Butter

  • 1 stick butter
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 T honey
  • 1 t vanilla extract
  • 1 t cinnamon
  • pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Rolls

  • Add the water and half and half to a saucepan. Bring it to an almost boil. You'll know it's done when tiny bubbles begin to form around the edge of the pan. Let it cool for 5-10 minutes.
  • Add the yeast and honey to the milk. Combine.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer (or a large bowl if you don't have one), add the butter, milk mixture, egg, salt, and 1 cup of flour. Mix until combined.
  • Add the rest of the flour, 1 cup at a time, making sure the flour is completely incorporated in between adding cups.
  • Continue kneading for 5-6 minutes. It should be a soft, well-combined ball when done.
  • Cover and let it rise for 1 hour.
  • Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Roll it out until it's about ½ inch thick. Fold the dough in half and seal the edges.
  • Cut the dough into evenly sized squares. Place them on a greased cookie sheet and let them rise for 1 additional hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350° F.
  • Bake for 13-16 minutes, or until the top is a light golden brown.
  • Brush the top of the cooked rolls with melted butter if you desire.
