Julie has made these rolls a couple of times and they are so amazing.  Perfectly salted, texture and taste are perfect.  She says this came from Jennefer Tasker's ward cookbook.  So, here you go...just in time for Thanksgiving!

Award-Winning Rolls

Lynette Wettstein

2 Tbs. dried yeast

1 1/2 cup warm water

1/2 cup melted butter

1/2 cup sugar

3 eggs

1 tsp salt

5 cups flour

Dissolve yeast in the warm water by stirring slowly with a mixer. Add to the yeast mixture, the melted butter (make sure it's not too hot!), sugar, and eggs.  Mix well in mixer.  Add salt.  Add flour, one cup at a time.  Dough will be sticky.  Scrape dough from sides into the middle and sprinkle with approximately 1/4 cup of flour.  Cover mixer bowl with towel and rise until double in size.  

Roll on well-floured surface and cut into shapes.  I usually use a regular drinking cup with a rounded top to cut the rolls.  Place on greased pan and let rise again 15-25 minutes.  Melt additional butter and brush rolls with butter.  Bake at 375 degrees for 10-15 minutes until rolls are slightly browned.  Brush with additional butter after removing from oven.  Makes about 24-30 rolls.
