  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Heat milk to 180 degrees Fahrenheit n a pot on the stove or microwave safe bowl or measuring cup in the microwave.
  2. Remove the milk from heat and add the softened butter. Let cool to 120 degrees Fahrenheit.

  4. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  5. In a stand mixer bowl add the yeast, milk, sugar, salt and 1 cup flour.

  7. Add egg and beat until combined.
  8. Add 2 more cups of flour one at a time scraping down the sides and mixing after each addition.
  9. Change to dough hook and add flour ½ cup at a time on low speed until dough forms and pulls away from the sides.
  10. Knead the dough with the dough hook on medium until the dough is smooth, 3-4 minutes.

  13. Form the dough into a ball and place in greased bowl.
