One of the reasons that I love my Kitchenaid Mixer is because it takes the hardship out of making bread dough! Which, in turn, makes it very easy to make fresh dinner rolls to accompany hearty soups.
\nMy husband recently bought me a bread maker so I tried the dough setting, which worked fine. The Recipe book that came with the bread maker didn’t have a Dinner Roll recipe so I used the White Bread recipe on the Dough setting. I shaped the dough, proofed the rolls, covered lightly with a clean tea towel in a slightly heated oven in which I then placed, on the oven floor, a bowl with about four cups of boiled water. I proofed them for about 45 minutes then baked them in a 400F oven for about 17 minutes (I had the time set for 18), removed them from the oven and immediately brushed with them with melted butter.
\nAfter all that effort? I was not too pleased with the dinner rolls! Why not? Because I was expecting these!<\/p>\n

\"Dinner<\/a>
Crescent Shaped Dinner Rolls<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

3 1\/2 cups Flour
\n1\/4 cup Sugar
\n1\/4 cup Shortening (butter works too)
\n1 teaspoon Salt
\n1 Tablespoon Quick Rise yeast
\n1\/2 cup very warm Milk (120F – 130F)
\n1\/2 cup very warm Water (120F – 130F)
\n1 egg, lightly beaten
\nButter, melted<\/p>\n

Mix 2 cups of the flour, the sugar, shortening, salt and yeast in Kitchenaid mixing bowl.
\nAdd warm water, warm milk and egg; using the Paddle attachment, beat on low speed for about a minute.
\nScrape down sides of bowl and stir a couple of times.
\nSwitch to Dough Hook attachment and slowly add enough remaining flour to make a soft, pliable dough.
\nKnead for about 7 minutes or until smooth and elastic.
\nTurn out onto lightly floured surface, knead a few times by hand to shape the dough into a ball; cover and let rise for 10-15 minutes.
\nLightly spray two baking trays with vegetable oil spray; dust ever so slightly with cornmeal.
\nDivided dough in half; cover the half you are not working with.
\nOn a lightly floured surface, roll dough out into a large thing circle.
\nUsing a knife, cut dough into 8 wedges.<\/p>\n
