📝 Preparation Steps

Combine ¾ cup flour, sugar, dry yeast and salt in a large mixer bowl and stir until blended.

Combine milk, water and butter in a small microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup. Microwave on HIGH in ⏱️ 15 second increments until very warm but not hot to the touch (120° to 130°F). Test the water temperature with an instant read thermometer, if you have one. Note: butter won’t melt completely.

Add wet ingredients to flour mixture.

Without a mixer: stir mixture with a wooden spoon until you can’t stir anymore, adding just enough flour (about 1 – 1 ½ cups more) so the dough will come to a ball, getting your hands in there once you can’t stir anymore.

If using a mixer: Beat ⏱️ 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add 1/4 cup flour; beat ⏱️ 2 minutes at high speed. Stir in just enough of the remaining flour (1 to 1-1/4 cups) so that the dough will form into a ball.

Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic and springs back when lightly pressed with 2 fingers, about 6 to ⏱️ 8 minutes. Cover with a towel; let rest for ⏱️ 10 minutes.

Cut dough into 36 equal pieces. (Do this by cutting the dough into 12 pieces and cutting each of them into three pieces.) Roll each piece into a ball.

Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place three balls of dough in each muffin cavity.

Cover with towel; let rise in warm place until doubled in size, about ⏱️ 30 minutes .

Bake in preheated 375ºF oven for ⏱️ 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan carefully and brush with additional melted butter, if desired. Serve warm.
