Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 3-3/4 to 4-1/4 cups flour, 2 packets of yeast, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Stir until evenly blended.
- In a saucepan, warm 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup butter, and 1/4 cup honey until 120°-130°F. Pour into dry ingredients, mixing on medium speed for 2 minutes.
- Incorporate 2 egg yolks into the dough, beating at high speed for 2 minutes, then add enough remaining flour until a soft dough forms.
- Transfer dough to a floured surface, knead for 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
- Punch down dough to release air bubbles, cover again and refrigerate overnight.
- Divide dough in half and roll out one portion into a 14-inch circle. Cut into wedges, brush with melted butter, and roll from the wide end to the point.
- Place shaped rolls on greased baking sheets, cover loosely, and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake rolled crescents for 9-11 minutes until golden brown.
- Transfer to wire rack to cool for a few minutes before serving.
