   In a small saucepan melt the butter over low heat. Turn off the burner and add the milk and honey. Stir to combine well, then set aside.

2. 2

   In a small bowl combine 2 cups of the flour, the yeast and salt.

3. 3

   In a large bowl, or the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the milk mixture and the flour/yeast mixture. Mix until smooth.

   If mixing by hand, work in the remaining cup flour, then turn dough out on a floured surface and knead for 10 minutes.
