Sunbeam Rolls

These rolls are a family tradition at Thanksgiving and Christmas. They are light and delicious and evoke a lot of memories! Just don't forget the salt. Trust me.

1 tablespoon yeast
1 cup milk
½ cup margarine
½ cup sugar
3 eggs
4½ to 5 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt

Dissolve yeast in ½ cup warm water and 1 teaspoon sugar; set aside.  Scald milk and add sugar and butter.  Add eggs and mix.  Add salt, 2 cups flour and yeast mixture.  Add remaining flour to form soft dough.  Let rise until double in size.  Divide dough in half.  Roll each half into a 12-inch circle. Spread with butter. Cut into 12 wedges. Roll up the wedges starting with the wide end. Place rolls with point under on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise until double (about 1 hour).  Bake at 375°F for 10 - 15 minutes.
