SUGAR CRISP ROLLS 
2 1/4 c. unsifted flour
1 1/4 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 pkg. active dry yeast
1/2 c. milk
1/4 c. butter
1 egg
1 c. chopped nuts
Melted butter

Combine 3/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, salt and dry yeast. Heat milk and 1/4 cup butter until butter is soft. When just warm add to dry ingredients and beat for 2 minutes at medium speed. Add egg and 1/4 cup flour and beat 2 minutes at high speed. Stir in enough flour to make a soft, handleable dough. Knead about 5 to 8 minutes. Put in greased bowl, cover and let rise until double. Punch down and let rise again about 30 minutes. Combine remaining sugar and nuts. Roll dough to 9 x 18 inches. Brush with melted butter. Sprinkle with half the sugar and nut mixture. Roll from long side as for jelly roll. Cut into 3/4 inch slices. Pat each side with melted butter and put each side in sugar mixture to cover. Place on greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise until double, about 30 minutes. Bake at 375 degrees for about 15 minutes or until done.
