3 1/2 to 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour or bread flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter or stick margarine, softened
1 teaspoon salt
1 package regular or quick active dry yeast (2 1/4 tsp)
1/2 cup very warm water (120 to 130*)
1/2 cup very warm milk (120° to 130°)
1 large egg
Butter or stick margarine, melted, if desired
1. Mix 2 cups of the flour, the sugar, 1/4 cup butter, salt and yeast in large bowl. Add warm water, warm milk and egg. Beat with electric mixer on low speed 1 minute, scraping bowl frequently. Beat on medium speed 1 minute, scraping bowl frequently. Stir in enough remaining flour to make dough easy to handle.
