Method
- In a large bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let stand for 5-10 minutes, or until foamy to activate the yeast.
- Add melted butter and egg to the yeast mixture. Whisk until well combined.
- Gradually add the flour and salt to the wet ingredients, mixing with a wooden spoon or dough hook until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 6-8 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, knead in a stand mixer with a dough hook for 5 minutes.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough to release the air. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a smooth ball.
- Place the rolls in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Cover with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let rise for 30-45 minutes, or until puffy.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and brush with remaining melted butter. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes
For a dairy-free option, use almond milk and vegan butter. You can also substitute whole wheat flour for up to half of the all-purpose flour for a nuttier flavor. Avoid over-kneading for soft rolls and ensure a warm environment for proper rising.
