2 1/2 cups flour
Second and Third Rise
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1
Pour the sugar, vegetable oil and milk into a small saucepan. Heat liquid until lukewarm, stirring well to dissolve the sugar.

Pour 1/2 cup of the warm liquid into a glass. Check the temperature which should be about 105-115 F. Add the yeast and dissolve completely. Pour dissolved yeast back into milk mixture.
3
Measure 2 1/2 cups flour and sift into a large mixing bowl. Add all of the warm liquid to the flour. Beat well. Cover the bowl and allow dough to rise for one hour in a warm place.

Sift all dry ingredients together. Punch down dough and add sifted dry ingredients. Beat until mixed well. Allow to rise again for one hour.
5
Roll out dough to 1/3 inch thickness on a floured board. Cut into circles with a round cookie cutter and place on a buttered baking sheet. Melt butter in a small skillet and brush the tops of the dough circles. Top each with a second circle of dough which has been dipped in butter. Cover baking sheet with waxed paper and allow rolls to rise for one more hour. Bake rolls 5 minutes in a preheated 475 degree F oven. Tops should be golden brown. Butter inside of rolls before serving immediately.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
