Crescent Rolls

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups scalded milk

1 cube butter

2 pkg dry yeast

1/2 cup warm water

1 tsp. sugar

1/2 cup sugar

2 tsp. salt

4-6 cups flour

Directions:

In small saucepan, scald milk. You know it is scalded when it starts to get frothy around the edges but is not yet boiling. Remove from heat and add butter, set aside. In mixer add yeast, warm water and 1 tsp sugar, set aside. Once milk mixture is lukewarm, add remaining sugar and salt. Pour milk mixture into the yeast mixture. Add flour gradually while mixing. Once dough is pulling away from the sides of the mixer, cover with towel and set aside to rise. Once dough has doubled in size, punch it down. Divide it into halves. Roll each section into a circle, cut into triangles using a pizza cutter. Roll and place on greased cookie sheet. Cover and let rise again for 1/2-1hr. Bake at 375 until lightly browned on top.
