1 cup warm water (with pinch of sugar to feed the yeast)
1 stick butter or margarine
1 cup warm milk

Directions:
Directions:
Dissolve yeast in warm water. Mix everything but only with half the flour till well mixed, then add the rest of the flour. I use the dough hook to mix and knead but it can be done by hand. For crescent rolls. Take a fourth of the dough and roll out to dinner plate size on floured board. Cut like a pizza into eight pieces. Start at the wide end if each piece and roll up like a log to the point. Repeat with the rest of the dough. Bake on lightly sprayed cookie sheet at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This is on the "wall of fame"...it is a favorite for all holidays, with roast beef dinners and is used to make tuna loaf. I use the sweet roll version for Bunny Bread, Bread of the Dead, King Cake for Mardi Gras,and St. Lucy Day. Very versatile roll recipe.
