BASIC SWEET DOUGH
I have made plenty of sweet breads, and I always favored the Hungarian Coffee Cake and Swedish Tea Ring. This sweet dough recipe is my mother's, and this works out really well because it is an old recipe. I have also used others which were more recent and still turned out well, but this one is the best I have found. Use this recipe for the basis of your sweet breads.

Steps:

- Sift and measure the flour into a large bowl. Make a well in the flour, and pour the liquids into the well. Stir with a large wooden spoon until liquid disappears.
- With one hand, mix dough in bowl using swinging rotary motion. Gradually form dough into smooth ball, then knead in bowl for 2 minutes. Brush top with melted shortening. Cover, and allow dough to rise at room temperature until doubled in bulk, about 2 hours.

Steps:
- Warm 1/2 cup water and the milk in a saucepan over low heat until a thermometer registers 100 degrees F to 110 degrees F. Remove from the heat and sprinkle the yeast on top, then sprinkle with a pinch of the sugar; set aside, undisturbed, until foamy, about 5 minutes.
- Whisk the melted butter, egg yolk and vanilla into the yeast mixture until combined. In a large bowl, whisk the flour, the remaining sugar, the salt and nutmeg. Make a well in the center, then add the yeast mixture and stir with a wooden spoon to make a thick and slightly sticky dough. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until soft and elastic, about 6 minutes. Shape into a ball.
- Brush a large bowl with butter. Add the dough, turning to coat lightly with the butter. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until the dough is doubled in size, about 1 hour, 15 minutes.
- Turn the dough out of the bowl and knead briefly to release excess air; re-form into a ball and return to the bowl. Lightly butter a large piece of plastic wrap and lay it directly on the surface of the dough. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
SWEET BREAD DOUGH
This is a great bread dough recipe for making a variety of final products. I use it as my base for cinnamon rolls, caramel rolls, monkey bread, dinner rolls with pork, etc. Since so many people have asked me for my recipe over the years, I'm finally posting it online. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Put butter and milk in a small saucepan and heat until you first see bubbles, stirring occasionally to keep milk from burning. Then remove from heat and add the cold water. [We're scalding the milk and then cooling it back down to not kill the yeast].
- Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast and warm water, then let sit for about 10 minutes.
- Once the yeast is activated and the milk mixture is under 130 degrees F, add the milk mixture to the yeast and also the sugar, egg, salt, and 2 cups of the flour. Beat with electric mixer on low speed until moistened and then mix on medium speed for two minutes. Then switch to a mixing spoon and add another 2 cups of flour. Finally, turn dough out on floured board and knead in additional flour to make a moderately stiff, soft dough. If you have a stand mixer, do all this mixing the easy way and use your dough hook.
- Place dough in a lightly greased bowl, turn once to grease surface, cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size--about one hour.
- The next step is to shape according to your desired final product, then cover and let rise again for about 45 minutes, then bake.
- For basic dinner rolls, divide dough into 16 pieces, roll each between your hands to make a ball. These will need to bake at 350 degrees F for about 15-18 minutes. For the more sugary products, use your favorite methods and fillings and increase your baking time as needed, temperature should be fine for most.

THE BEST SWEET YEAST ROLL DOUGH I HAVE EVER FOUND
These homemade rolls are a recipe that brings back memories of childhood. It's a basic, old-fashioned yeast roll recipe. They smell amazing while baking but be patient... good things come to those who wait. Dense but tender, they remind us of a Hawaiian roll in flavor but with a firmer texture. These rolls are delicious alone,...

Steps:
- 1. Scald milk (bring just to a boil and remove from heat immediately).
- 2. Stir in sugar, salt, and butter. Set aside and allow to cool to lukewarm.
- 3. In a large bowl mix warm water and yeast. Stir until dissolved.
- 4. Stir in lukewarm milk mixture.
- 5. Add beaten eggs.
- 6. Stir in half the flour. Beat until smooth. Add remaining flour gradually, mixing as you go. You may need a bit more or less than the total 4 1/2 cups called for in the recipe, depending on the humidity and other factors.
- 7. Your dough should be elastic and slightly stiff but not dry.
- 8. Turn dough out onto a floured board and knead until smooth and very elastic. This usually takes 8-10 minutes.
- 9. Butter the inside of a large mixing bowl. Put dough in bowl and turn dough over a couple of times to coat it all with the butter.
- 10. Cover bowl and place in a warm place so it can rise.
- 11. It will take about 1 hour to double in bulk.
- 12. At that time punch dough down and turn out onto a lightly floured board to shape.
- 13. At this point, you can shape and fill as desired. To make dinner rolls, pinch off about 2-3 tablespoons of dough and shape into a ball. Place each one in a buttered muffin tin or baking pan, barely touching each other, do not crowd rolls.
- 14. Cover prepared rolls and allow to rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, again about 1 hour.
- 15. Rolls should now touch each other. (A little more rising will occur during baking.)
- 16. Preheat oven to 350 degrees when rolls are about 10 minutes from being ready for baking. When ready to bake place rolls in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. They should be browned nicely and smell so good and yeasty!
- 17. Brush tops of rolls with melted butter immediately when removed from the oven.
- 18. Allow rolls to sit for at least 10-15 minutes before eating.

- Heat milk in a small saucepan over medium heat or in a microwave until an instant-read thermometer registers 110°–115°. Transfer milk to a 2-cup measuring cup; stir in 1 Tbsp. sugar. Sprinkle yeast over milk and whisk to blend. Let sit until yeast is foamy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs; whisk until smooth.
- Combine remaining 4 Tbsp. sugar, flour, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. (If making Vanilla Cloverleaf Sweet Rolls, scrape in seeds from vanilla bean.

Mix on medium speed for 1 minute. Knead on medium-high speed until dough is soft and silky, about 5 minutes.

- Check the yeast: (see footnotes if you'd like to make this dough in the breadmaker)Dissolve 2 tsp of active dried yeast with 1/2 cup milk and 1 tsp of sugar from the overall amount and leave in a warm location until frothy, about 10-15 minutes. If the mixture does not froth up and rise, discard the yeast and start over when you have a fresh batch of dried yeast.
- Knead: Into a bowl of a mixer sift 3 cups of flour. Then add 1/3 cup sugar, remaining 1/2 cup warm milk, 4 egg yolks, 2 tbsp sour cream, 1 tbsp vanilla extract and the risen yeast mixture. Mix with a paddle attachment on low speed until it comes together, then switch to a kneading hook and knead on low speed (speed 2 to 3 on a Kitchenaid mixder) for about 20 minutes or until the dough is elastic, tacky to touch and you're able to stretch a piece of dough into a thin "window without it tearing. Pro tip: Do not overknead, or the gluten strands will get overworked and tear, leaving you with a chunky dough that doesn't have the strength to hold a good rise of the dough.[br][/br]Add 3 oz of butter and 1/4 tsp of the salt and knead it into the bread until no streaks of butter are seen, (~5-7 minutes). Sometimes tearing the dough into chunks helps to incorporate the butter easier/faster.
- 1st Proofing: Oil the sides of the bowl and the dough, cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and leave in a warm place to proof until doubled in size, about 1.5 hours. I preheat the oven at 200F for 2-3 minutes then turn it off and place the bowl into the oven with the heat off. This gives the dough a nice warm place without being too hot. Be careful not to overheat the oven as anything over the temp of 100F will kill the yeast instead of allowing it to proof.
- Shape: This recipe makes one large braid. To make two smaller bread loaves divide the dough into two, then shape 2 separate braids instead of one like the recipe instructs to. Once risen, divide the dough into 3 equal pieces. Weighing the dough is the best way to divide the dough evenly. Roll each piece into a tight ball, then into a 20-inch log. Pinch the ends of the 3 logs together at one end, then braid them into a braid pinching the three ends together at the end as well. Tuck both ends of the braid underneath itself slightly to give it a better shape.
