The quickest, easiest, flawless, very versitable DOUGH~

This dough recipe is great.  I have issues with roll dough and rising but this recipe, if I can swing it in every single attempt- it's a keeper.

Try it out sometime, it's one that can be used for anything and everything, as shown from cresants (a prebaked pic) to pizza and everything inbetween cinnamon rolls, basic rolls, scones, disney characters...you name it.

1 Cup Milk

1 Cube Butter

1/2 Cup Sugar 

1 1/2 tsp salt

1/2 cup warm water

1 pkg yeast (2 1/4 tsp)

1/2 tsp. sugar (to sprinkle on top of yeast and warm water)

2 beaten eggs

5 cups flour

Scald your milk by bringing it to a boil in microwave (approx. 2 minutes, I use a glass measuring cup which works well) you can also do this over the stove if desired, then pour milk over your butter, sugar and salt.  Stir and let cool slightly.  In a small separate bowl combine the warm water, yeast and 1/2 tsp. sugar.  Let the yeast activate and then add it and the beaten egg to the milk mixture and stir.  Mix in approx. 5 cups of flour, enough to bring the dough to a nice kneading consistency.  Knead dough and let it rise for about 30 min. or so depending on temp of your home.  Make dough into any option your heart desires. Rolls will then need to raise again for another 30 min or so, but the pizza dough is good to top and cook, no additional raising needed and an easy fix for those kitchen helpers.  Cook at 350 degrees until bottoms are light golden brown.
