Texas Roadhouse Rolls With Cinnamon Butter

Ingredients for Rolls:
2 tsp active dry yeast
¼ cup warm water
1 cups milk
¼ cup sugar + 1 tsp
3-4 cups flour
1.5 Tbsp. melted butter
1 egg
1 tsp salt

Ingredients for Cinnamon Butter:
1 stick of butter
cinnamon, vanilla, and powdered sugar to taste

Dissolve yeast in warm water with a teaspoon of sugar; let stand until frothy. 

Combine yeast mixture, milk, 1/2 cup sugar and enough flour to make a medium batter (about the consistency of pancake batter). Beat thoroughly

Add melted butter, eggs and salt.  Beat well

Add enough flour to form a soft dough

Knead dough until smooth or use a mixer with the hook attachment for about 4-5 min

Rub the dough with a thin layer of oil

Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size

Punch down

Cut dough into individual portions

Let rest 10 minutes

Shape dough into desired forms (I have included a video of how I learned years ago when I worked at a pizza place, but do whatever works for you)

Place on greased or lined baking sheets

Let rise until doubled

Bake at 350 degrees for 10-13 minutes

As soon as the rolls come out of the oven baste with butter

And there you have it, delicious rolls similar to Texas Roadhouse's

For the cinnamon butter combine one softened stick of butter with approximately 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla, 1 teaspoon powdered sugar, and 2 Tablespoons honey. Adjust the measurements as needed to get the sweetness level you would like.
