Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 4 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of yeast, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
  2. Mix in 1 cup of warm milk and ½ cup of melted butter until blended, then add one beaten egg and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  3. Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until doubled in size.
  4. Gently punch down the dough, transfer to a floured surface, divide into 12 equal pieces, and shape into rolls.
  5. Place rolls on a greased baking sheet, cover with a towel, and let rise for an additional 30 minutes.
  6. Melt ½ cup of butter in a saucepan, add minced garlic, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
