Sharon Buck Made Texas Roadhouse Rolls

On Saturday night, Chad and I went out with our friends, Rick and Rita Turcotte for dinner at the Texas Roadhouse in Augusta. I thought it was going to be just another dinner.

But, oh my, I went home with a hankerin' for more of those delicious dinner rolls. So I found the recipe!

You can find just about anything on the internet. Thank goodness I was able to find this recipe. I found it at Food.com. It even shows the calories if you are looking for those! I went straight home and started baking. I must tell you, that I am HORRIBLE with breads. Bread, rolls, and especially biscuits are not my forte. That's why I was so surprised that the recipe was so easy to follow!

Here it is....start baking!

• 1/4 ounce active dry yeast
• 1/2 cup warm water
• 2 cups milk
• 3 tablespoons of melted butter
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 quarts all-purpose flour
• 2 whole eggs
• 2 teaspoons salt

Directions:

In the bowl of your electric mixer, combine yeast, a teaspoon of sugar and warm water.

Make sure your dough hook is attached. Add the milk, the rest of the sugar and about 2 1/2 cups of flour. Mix it thoroughly and then let it sit for 10 minutes.

Add the melted butter, eggs and salt. Beat well. Add rest of the flour. Mix well. Let it sit 10 minutes. While you're waiting, spray a big bowl with cooking spray.

Knead the dough on floured surface until smooth. Put dough in new bowl and cover with plastic. Put it somewhere warm so it will rise. Let rise until double its size.

Punch it down and put on floured surface. Use your rolling pin to make it a rectangle about a half inch thick. Fold the rectangle in half the short way and roll the edges so they are sealed. Let dough rest 10 minutes.

Cut dough into squares and place on a greased baking sheet. You will need more than one. Cover with a damp towel and let rise for an hour.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Lightly cover with butter. Then EAT!
