American Rolls

Place the desired amount of sifted flour in a deep bowl, make a hollow in the middle, and put in some lukewarm milk, a little butter dissolved in the milk, a little salt and sugar and two gills of yeast, mix in enough flour to make a firm, smooth batter, cover the bowl, and put it in a warm place until the batter is light and foamy, then mix in some more flour, knead the dough for five minutes, again cover it, and let it stand until twice its original size. When the dough is light, roll and cut into thick rounds, set two together, and bake in a quick oven until browned.
