1 tsp. salt
3/4 c. butter
1/2 c. sugar
1 c. milk, heated
2 pkg. yeast
1/2 c. warm water
2 eggs, beaten
5 1/2 to 6 c. flour
Melted butter

Add salt, butter and sugar to milk. Stir until butter melts. Let cool to lukewarm. Add to yeast which has been dissolved in 1/2 cup warm water in large bowl, and beat in eggs. Gradually add 3 1/2 cups flour and beat until smooth. Add rest of flour until you have a nice sponge.

Grease a large bowl and put dough in it. Grease top and refrigerate 3 hours or overnight. Turn out on well-floured board and knead a few minutes. Divide dough in half and roll each in a circle.

Spread with melted butter and cut in pie-shaped wedges. Roll into crescents. Repeat with other half of dough. Place on greased cookie sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled. Bake at 400 degrees for 8 minutes. Yield: 36.
