Kittencals Buttery Pan Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• Generously grease a 13 x 9-inch baking pan (preferably metal) with melted butter; set aside.
• In a heavy-duty stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, add in 4 cups flour; set aside.
• In a small saucepan heat the 1 cup full-fat milk with 1/4 cup butter, salt and 3 tablespoons sugar until the butter starts to melt, stirring with a spoon (butter does not have to completely melt) set aside until warm and not hot, to speed things up place in the fridge for about 20 minutes this will cool it down faster, the mixture should be warm but not hot.
• When the milk mixture is warm, proof 1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon yeast in 1/2 cup warm water with 1 teaspoon sugar; let sit for 10 minutes or until foamy.
• Add the yeast and the warm milk/butter mixture and the egg to the bowl with the flour in it.
• Start mixing, adding more flour only if needed to create a soft semi sticky dough that holds around the kneader blade (it might take up to 5 cups of flour).
• Keep adding more flour 1 tablespoon at a time as needed and knead the dough for 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth.
• Remove the dough from the mixing bowl, and let sit covered with a clean tea towel on the counter for 10 minutes.
• After 10 minutes, knead the dough gently for about 15 seconds into a ball (the dough will come together nicely).
• Place in an oiled bowl.
• Cover and let rise about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
• Punch down dough.
• Divide dough into 12 pieces, and shape into round balls.
• Place the dough balls into the prepared baking dish (fitting 12 balls evenly in the dish with 3 balls across and 4 rows down, if you have extra dough balls place into the freezer to bake another time).
• If desired, brush the dough balls with melted butter, this is only optioanl.
• Cover with a clean tea towel, and let rise for about 30-40 minutes, or until ALMOST double in size).
• Set oven to 375 degrees.
• Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until dark golden brown on top.

Steps:

• Combine 3 cups of the flour, the sugar, salt and yeast in a large bowl. Stir well and set aside.
• Combine milk, water and 1/4 cup of the butter in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until butter melts, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and let mixture cool to 120 to 130 degrees F (49 to 54 degrees C).
• Gradually add milk to flour mixture and beat at low speed of an electric mixer for 30 seconds. Then beat for 2 minutes at high speed. Gradually stir in the remaining flour to make a soft dough.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8 to 10 minutes or until dough is smooth and elastic. Place dough in a well greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Punch dough down, cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Melt remaining 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter.
• Shape dough into 40 balls and dip each one in the melted butter. Place the balls in two greased 9 inch square baking pans. Cover and let rise for 45 minutes.
• Bake in a preheated 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) oven for 15 minutes or until rolls are golden. Brush warm rolls with any remaining melted butter.

Steps:

• Prepare as dough in the bread machine.
• Remove dough to lightly floured board, divide into quarters, then divide each quarter into 6.
• Spray muffin pan with cooking/baking spray.
• Put each little ball into the muffin pan.
• Brush with egg glaze (optional).
• Cover dough to rise until size doubles- 1 hour.
• Bake at 375 degrees F, 10-20 minutes.

Steps:

• For the dough; fit a heavy-duty stand mixer with the dough hook.
• Place 4 cups flour in the stainless steel bowl; set aside.
• Proof the yeast with 2 teaspoons sugar in 1/2 cup warm water for about 8-10 minutes or until foamy.
• Meanwhile in a microwave-safe bowl place the milk with butter cubes, salt and sugar; microwave on high until just slightly warmed (about 1 minute or a little more the butter does not have to be completely melted) stir to dissolve the sugar and salt.
• Add the mixture to the bowl along with the egg.
• When the yeast is foamy add to the bowl.
• Start kneading adding in more flour as needed to create a soft smooth dough (kneading will take about 8-10 minutes).
• Remove to a lightly floured surface, cover with a clean tea towel and allow the dough to rest for 5 minutes.
• Shape the dough into a ball and place into a greased bowl; cover and rise for about 1-1/2 hours or until doubled (the rising time will vary depending on how warm your kitchen is).
• Punch down the dough and allow to rest in bowl for 5 minutes.
• In a small bowl mix together the brown sugar with cinnamon.
• Transfer to a floured surface, roll into about 18 x 13-inch rectangle with short end facing you to make rolling up easier (I just spread out the dough using my hands, the measurments do not have to be exact).
• Spread the softened butter over the dough (you can use more than 1/2 cup buter if desired, I usually do!).
• Sprinkle the brown sugar/cinnamon mixture evenly over the butter, sprinkle with raisins and/or nuts if using.
• Starting at the short end roll up the dough as tightly as possible (the dough will spread out even more while rolling).
• Pinch the long seam together as best you can, you might also want to slice a small piece off both ends to even off the roll).
• Using a serrated knife slice log into two even halves, then slice each half into 6 even slices (this will give you 12 pieces, although I sometimes get less).
• Generously butter two 9-inch round cake pans (or use one 13 x 9-inch pan and place 3 rounds across, 4 rounds down in the pan).
• In each round cake pan place 5 dough rounds around the pan and 1 dough round in the middle placing cut-side down.
• Cover with a clean tea towel and allow to rise in a warm place until doubled (this may take about 1 to 1-1/2 hours or more depending on the temperature of your kitchen).
• Set oven to 375 degrees F.
• Bake until browned about 25 minutes.
• Cool the buns slightly then drizzle the icing over the warm buns.

Steps:

• Grease a round 2-quart casserole dish or an 11 x 7-inch baking dish.
• For the sauce; in a skillet or saucepan brown the ground beef with onion and red chili flakes until no longer pink.
• Drain fat then add in garlic, oregano and basil; cook for 2 minutes.
• Add in tomato sauce, mushrooms and 1/2 teaspoon salt, bring to a boil over medium heat stirring.
• Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30-40 minutes stirring occasionally, season with more salt to taste if desired.
• Meanwhile cook the spaghetti in boiling water until almost tender (undercook the spaghetti as it will soften up even more when baked in the oven) drain in a colander then rinse under cold water, drain well again then place into a large bowl.
• Add in melted butter, garlic powder, eggs, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and black pepper; using clean hands toss/mix until well combined (use hands for mixing spaghetti this will not work with a spoon) season with salt to taste if desired.
• TO ASSEMBLE; spread the spaghetti mixture evenly into bottom of the pie plate, pressing down with hands to flatten.
• In a bowl mix 2 cups cottage cheese with 1/4 cup Parmesan and 1 cup mozzarella cheese cheese then spread over the spaghetti.
• Dollop the tomato sauce mixture over the cottage cheese then spread out with a spoon.
• Top with 1 cup or more of mozzarella cheese.
• Cover with foil and bake at 350°F for 30 minutes.
• Uncover and continue to bake 10-15 minutes more or until hot and bubbly.

Steps:

• In a large boul, dissolve yeast and 1 tsp of the sugar in warm water, stirring to mix; let stand until bubbly (about 5 minutes).
• In a medium-sized bowl, combine 2 cups of the flour, the remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and the salt until well mixed. Beat flour mixture into yeast mixture, along with 6 tbsp of the melted butter, the egg, and milk; beat for about 5 minutes to blend well. Gradually beat in the remaining 2.5 cups flour. Cover with plastic wrap and let batter rise in a warm place until doubled (about 45 minutes).
• Pour 1 tbsp of hte remaining melted butter into a 9X13" baking pan, tilting pan to coat bottom. Punch down batter and drop by handfulls into buttered pan, makiing about 15 rolls. Drizzle remaining 1 tbsp butter over dough. Cover lightly with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled (about 30 minutes).
• Bake in 375F oven until lightly browned (20-25 minutes. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Spray two round 8-inch baking pans with cooking spray (preferable a dark metal pan).
• Melt 1/3 cup butter then mix in 1 teaspoon garlic powder until well combined.
• Drizzle enough melted butter/garlic mixture to lightly cover the bottom of the pan; set the remaining butter/garlic mixture aside to use later.
• Attach the kneader blade to the heavy duty stand mixer.
• In a small bowl or cup proof the yeast with 1 teaspoon sugar in 1/2 cup warm water for about 8-10 minutes or until foamy (if the yeast does not foam discard and start again).
• In the stainless steel mixing bowl from a heavy duty stand mixer combine 2-1/2 cups flour with 1 tablespoon sugar, salt and 1 to 1-1/4 teaspoons garlic powder, warm milk, soft shortening and egg.
• After the yeast has been proofed pour into the bowl then start mixing/kneading adding in a little more flour if needed to create a soft smooth dough (kneading time should take about 7-8 minutes).
• Remove to a greased bowl; cover and allow the dough to rise until doubled in size (about 1 to 1-1/2 hours, rising time will vary depending on the temperature of your kitchen and also dough with added egg will take longer to rise).
• Punch down the dough then divide into 10 even pieces then shape into balls.
• Place 5 balls in each pan (4 around the edges and 1 in the middle).
• Stir the reserved melted butter/garlic mixture once again before using as the garlic powder may have settled on the bottom, the lightly drizzle on top of each bun.
• Using your hands turn the balls to coat in the butter mixture.
• For even more garlic flavor pinch a small amount of garlic powder between your fingers then sprinkle over the top of each dough ball.
• Cover with a light clean tea towel and allow to rise for about 30 minutes or until almost doubled in size.
• Bake in a preheated 375 degree F oven for about 25 minutes or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Mix both flours, sugar and salt in a large bowl.
• With a pastry cutter cut in the very cold butter and lard until the consistency of tiny peas.
• In a small bowl whisk the egg yolk, vinegar and water.
• Stir the egg/water mixture into the flour mixture until moistened and dough holds together (usually it takes the full amount of water/egg mixture).
• Gather into a ball then divide into two.
• Cover with plastic wrap and store in the fridge for 30 minutes (or the dough may be frozen after the 30 minutes chilling time, just wrap firstly in plastic wrap and then tightly in foil, leave in fridge overnight to defrost).
• PROCESSOR METHOD: whirl the flour, sugar and salt for a couple of seconds.
• In a small bowl mix the egg, vinegar and water together; set aside.
• Add in the partially frozen butter cubes and lard to the flour mixture; pulse until well mixed, then add in the water/egg mixture.
• Process/pulse JUST until the dough holds together (do not over process, or your dough will be tough!).

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees F (second-lowest oven rack).
• Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking pan or use a larger pan (for easier clean up I strongly advise to use a disposable heavy foil pan).
• Make certain that the cabbage heads are completely thawed before using for this (to do this remove the heads of cabbage from freezer and place in a bowl then thaw at room temperature overnight).
• Using a small sharp knife carefully remove the hard core/stem from the center of the head, then remove the leaves from the cabbage (you may need to keep slicing off some middle part to remove the leaves easier).
• To speed up cooking time you may want to cook the leaves in boiling salted water for about 8-10 minutes this will give the cabbage rolls a head start and reduce cooking time slightly.
• Using your hands gently squeeze out 2 to 3 leaves at a time to remove excess water, then place the leaves in a large bowl; set aside.
• FOR MEAT FILLING; using clean hands mix all ingredients together for the meat filling in large bowl until thoroughly combined.
• FOR SAUCE; in another bowl combine all sauce ingredients together until blended (adjust the salt and pepper to taste).
• Line the bottom of the pan with cabbage leaves (due to the long cooking time this will protect the rolls from over browning/burning in the pan while cooking, you may also place leaves on top of the sauce then cover with foil but that is optional).
• Using a large spoon or a ladle drizzle half of the sauce over the leaves then spread out to cover the leaves (does not have to cover the leaves completely).
• Stuff the cabbage leaves tightly but carefully with the meat mixture (I use about 1/3-cup for larger leaves).
• Roll up tightly and place the rolls in a single layer on top of the cabbage leaves and sauce in the baking dish.
• Drizzle the remaining sauce over the rolls (using a butter knife separate the rolls slightly to insure the sauce settles between and around each roll).
• Sprinkle about 1/2 cup or a little more sauerkraut over the sauce (if using).
• At this point you may cover the rolls with more leaves if desired (this is optional but good to do).
• Cover tightly with foil.
• IMPORTANT; if you are using a 13 x 9-inch dish it will be very full so place on a large jelly-roll pan to catch any spills.
• Cook at 350 degrees F (oven rack set to second-lowest position) for about 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until the cabbage is very tender, the cooking time will vary depending on how thick the cabbage leaves are and if you have pre-boiled the leaves firstly, I usually check after about 2 hours).
