1/4 cup warm water
1/4 t sugar
3 C warm milk
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup honey
1 t salt
3 eggs (beaten)

Directions:

Activate yeast in the warm water and sugar according to package. Heat milk and butter in a saucepan on low heat.Take off heat and add honey, salt and eggs together until well combined.  Add flour 2-3 cups at a time until dough is formed and is easy to handle.  Knead dough for about 5-10 minutes. Let rise in a greased bowl in a warm area for about 2 hours or until dough has doubled in size.  Punch dough down and form into balls and place in a well greased muffin tin, let rise for another hour until it has doubled in size again.  Bake in a 400 degree oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
