Step 1

Heat the butter and milk until it is about 105 - 115 degrees F / 40 - 46 degrees C.

Step 2

Add the milk/butter to a bowl and mix in the 3 packets (2 1/4 tbsp) of yeast. Let it sit for about 10-15 minutes until it starts to get foamy.

Step 3

Once the yeast has been proofed, mix in the beaten eggs and 2 1/2 tsp of salt.

Step 4

Gradually add the 6 1/2 - 7 cups of flour to the bowl, stirring until a dough starts to form. You can knead the dough using a stand mixer, or you can do it by hand. It will take about 5 minutes to knead in the mixer and about 10-15 minutes by hand. When it is fully kneaded, it should be a smooth dough that holds its shape.

Step 5

Let it rise, covered, in a greased bowl for one hour until it doubles in size. This is quite a big ball of dough, so make sure you use a large bowl.

Step 6

Once the dough has risen for an hour, punch it down and dump it onto your work surface. Grease a baking sheet.

Step 7

Cut the dough in half, then cut the two halves in half again until you have four pieces, then cut each of those in half until you have eight pieces, and then finally cut each of those pieces into three pieces until you are left with twenty-four pieces of dough. It sounds difficult, but basically, just cut until you have 24 roughly evenly-sized pieces of dough.

Step 8

Form each piece of dough into a round ball and add it to the greased baking sheet.

Step 9

Cover and let rise for one hour.

Step 10

While the dough balls are rising, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F / 190 degrees C.

Step 11

When the dough balls are done rising, pop them in the oven to bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.

Step 12

Brush with melted butter if you want, and enjoy!
