Light Dinner Rolls

Heat milk, butter and 3/4 cup water in saucepan until very warm (120 to 130 degrees F). Set aside to cool 10 minutes.

In a large bowl, stir 3 cups of the flour with the sugar, salt and yeast. Gradually stir warm liquid into dry ingredients. Beat with electric mixer on high speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Add enough remaining flour to make a soft dough.

Turn dough out onto floured board. Cover with bowl and let rest 10 minutes. Knead just until smooth, about 3 minutes. Place dough in large greased bowl; turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm spot until doubled, about 40 minutes.

Pull off handfuls and shape into rounds about 1 3/4 inches across. Place in a well­ buttered 9-by-13-inch pan with sides not quite touching. Cover and let rise in a warm spot until doubled.

Heat over to 350 degrees F. Bush roll tops with melted butter. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from pan; place on wire racks. Brush with additional butter. Serve warm.
