Knead thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Divide dough in half and roll out into a big circle.
Brush with 1/2 of the melted butter.
Cut into 16 pizza-like wedges.
Roll each wedge from large end to point like a crescent roll.
Place onto a greased baking sheet or seasoned stone.
Do the same to the other half of the dough. Allow 32 rolls to rise for about 2 hours in a warm place until doubled in size.
