My friend Andrea, who is a great cook, gave me this recipe a few years ago and I have used it a ton. These rolls are delicious and incredibly easy. They look great too. I'm making some today for Darren to take to young men's tonight. They're having a bee keeper show them how honey is made or something like that. This is not good for my husband, of all people, who already thinks it would be great to have a couple of hives in the backyard. Three kids, one wild dog, and four chickens are plenty for me.Bundt Bread
1 package yeast (or 2 teaspoons yeast)
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup warm water (yes, again)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup melted butter
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
3 cups flour
1/2 cup melted butter
Mix yeast and 1/2 cup warm water in small bowl and set aside. Mix 1/2 cup warm water, sugar, 1/4 cup melted butter, salt and egg in large bowl. Dump flour on top, stir a couple of times, then pour yeast mixture over everything. Stir with a spoon well. (The mixture will be very sticky, do not knead.) Cover with plastic wrap, refrigerate and let rise at least four hours, up to overnight. On floured board, roll dough out to 1/4 inch thick and cut into 3 inch circles (I use the end of a glass). Pour 1/2 cup melted butter into bundt pan. Arrange dough in pan, dipping it in the butter as you go, and overlapping the circles around the pan. Cover with plastic and let rise one hour. Bake at 375 for about 25 minutes, or until golden.
