Soft Fluffy Dinner Rolls

Four cups of all-purpose flour
1/4 cup of sugar, granulated
One package (2 1/4 teaspoons) of active dry yeast

One teaspoon of salt
Half a cup of heated water (45°C/110°F)
Half a cup of heated milk (45°C/110°F)
1/4 cup melted unsalted butter
Two big eggs at room temperature
Two teaspoons of melted unsalted butter for brushing

Get the Yeast Mixture Ready:
Dissolve the granulated sugar in the milk and warm water in a small bowl. After scattering the active dry yeast on top, leave it for five to ten minutes, or until foamy.

Combine the dough:

Mix the flour and salt together in a large bowl. Create a well in the middle and pour in the eggs, melted butter, and yeast mixture. Until a dough forms, stir.
Work the dough by kneading it:

The dough should be smooth and elastic after 8 to 10 minutes of kneading on a floured surface. If using a stand mixer, knead for 6 to 8 minutes on medium speed with the dough hook attachment.

First Rise: Put the dough in a basin that has been lightly oiled, cover it with plastic wrap or a moist cloth, and let it in a warm location for one to one and a half hours, or until it has doubled in size.

Shape the Rolls: To release the air, punch down on the dough. Form the dough into a ball by dividing it into 12–16 equal parts. Arrange the balls, slightly apart, in a baking pan that has been oiled.
Second Rise: Place a moist towel or plastic wrap over the rolls and let them in a warm location for 30 to 45 minutes, or until they are puffed and touching one another.

Set the Oven’s Temperature to 375°F (190°C).

Bake the Rolls: Apply melted butter to the rolls’ tops. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in a preheated oven, or until the top is golden brown.

Final Touch: For a smooth, glossy crust, take the rolls out of the oven and brush them with more melted butter.

Before serving, allow the rolls to cool a little. Savor them warm or cold from the refrigerator.
