Step 1

Combine 3/4 cup flour, yeast, sugar and salt in bowl; set aside.

Step 2

Combine milk, water and butter in 2-quart saucepan; cook over medium heat until temperature reaches 120ºF to 130ºF. Add milk mixture to flour mixture; beat at medium speed, scraping bowl occasionally, until mixture is smooth. Increase speed to high; add 1/4 cup flour. Beat until well mixed. Stir in enough remaining flour to make soft dough.

Step 3

Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface; knead 8-10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.

Step 4

Divide dough into 12 equal pieces; shape each piece into a ball. Place into greased 8-inch round pan. Cover; let rise in warm place about 30 minutes or until doubled in size.

Step 5

Heat oven to 375ºF.

Step 6

Bake rolls 20-22 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan; brush with additional melted butter, if desired. Serve warm.
