Ingredients

• 3.75 cups bread flour , divided
• 0.25 cups white sugar
• 0.25 cups shortening
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 , .25 ounce
• 0.5 cups warm water , 120 to 130 degrees F/50 degrees C
• 0.5 cups warm milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons butter , melted

Instructions

1. 1 Stir 2 cups flour, sugar, shortening, salt, and yeast together in a large bowl. Add warm water, warm milk, and egg; beat on low speed with an electric mixer for 1 to 2 minutes, scraping the sides frequently. Mix in remaining flour, 1/4 cup at a time, until dough comes together.
2. 2 Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl and turn to grease all sides. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
3. 3 Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and divide in half. Cut each half into 24 pieces; form each piece into a round. Fit 1/2 of the rolls into a lightly greased 9-inch round cake pan; brush 1/2 of the melted butter over top. Place remaining rolls in a second greased cake pan and brush with remaining butter. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.
4. 4 Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
5. 5 Bake rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown, 12 to 18 minutes.
