1 c. warm water
1/2 c. butter
1/2 c. sugartsp. salt
4 1/2 to 5 c. flour

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Melt butter. Add sugar, eggs, yeast, water and salt. Stir in up to 5 cups flour. Dough will be sticky (NOT stiff enough to knead). Put dough in greased bowl. Turn to grease the top. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Four hours before serving, divide dough in thirds. Roll each third into a circle. Cut in 12 wedges. Roll from big edge to point in a crescent. Let rise 4 hours. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes. Watch closely.
