Cresent Rolls

Here is the favored recipe at our house. Carter is constantly asking for rolls, and he loves to help make them and count how many go on the pan. They can be made into any shape, but I love the cresent shape (and I can't make a decent round roll to save my life!) and they look so great! This dough works great for cinn. rolls as well.

1 1/2 c warm water
1/4 c sugar
1/4 c powdered milk
1/4 c oil
1 tsp salt
1 egg
1 T yeast or 1 pkg yeast
4 c four

Mix all together in mixing bowl with only half of the flour. Slowly add the remaining flour until the dough no longer clings to the sides of the bowl and is a soft semi-sticky dough.

Knead in the bowl for 5 min.

Let rise until double. This makes 2 doz. cresent rolls, so I divide into 2 balls and then roll into a circle.


I then spread with butter and cut into 12 triangles. Its easier if you use a pizza cutter for this one.

Then roll up into a cresent shape. I like to take them by the large end and flip them. This stretches out the dough a bit more and gives the rolls a nice shape. Place on a pan and bake for 10-12 min until lightly golden at 375.
