Sour Cream Yeast Rolls (Taste Of Home) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 ounce active dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons butter, divided
1 egg

Preparation

In a large bowl combine 1 1/2 C flour, sugar, yeast and salt.
In a small saucepan, heat sour cream, water and 2 T butter to 120-130 degrees.
Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients.
Beat on medium for 2 minutes.
Add one egg and 1/2 C flour; beat 2 minutes longer.
Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough--this may mean using 21/2 C flour as noted above or up to 3 cups.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic--about 6-8 minutes.
Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top.
Cover and let rise in a warm place or in a warming oven on \"bread proof\" for one hour.
Punch down dough.
Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 12 pieces.
Shape each into a ball.
Place on a greased 9 x 13\" baking pan.
Cover and let rise again, until doubled, about 30 minutes.
Bake a 375 F for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
Melt remaining butter. Brush over rolls. Remove rolls from pan to a wire rack.
