Buttery Homemade Crescent Dinner Rolls

1. 1

   Dissolve the yeast in warm water in a bowl. Let it sit until the yeast softens and develops a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.

2. 2

   In a bowl, combine 2 cups flour, sugar, butter pieces, eggs, and salt; add the yeast mixture and stir until well combined. Mix in the remaining 2 cups flour until smooth. Scrape the dough from the sides of the bowl and mix to incorporate. Cover and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.

3. 3

   Punch down the dough, then divide it in half. Roll each half into a 12-inch-wide circle. Spread 2 tablespoons softened butter over each circle, then cut each circle into 12 wedges.

4. 4

   Starting at the wide end, roll one wedge toward the tip to make a crescent. Place it on a greased baking sheet with the tip facing down. Repeat with the remaining wedges. Cover and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

5. 5

   Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

6. 6

   Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush the tops with melted butter.
