Cloverleaf Rolls

1. 1

   Combine yeast, 2 teaspoons sugar, and water; stir. Let stand 5 minutes or until bubbly.

2. 2

   Combine remaining sugar, milk, 1/2 cup butter, egg, and salt in a large mixing bowl; stir until sugar and salt dissolve. Add yeast mixture, stirring well. Stir in enough flour to make a soft dough. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85u00b0), free from drafts, 1 hour or until doubled in bulk. Punch dough down. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.

Cover and repeat rising procedure 30 minutes or until doubled in bulk. Bake at 400u00b0 for 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Brush with melted butter.
