Butterflake Rolls

Butterflake rolls are soft rolls where butter is applied in between the layers and bake it in a muffin tray.These rolls are so soft and buttery with a rich taste.
The shaping of the rolls can be done in 2 ways either you can make strips out of the dough or make slits on top of the rolled dough.I tried the later version and it came out so good with a cute shape.I made these rolls with plain butter but flavored butter such as garlic,coriander or any other flavor can also be made.Off to the recipe.....................

•  After 1-1.5 hours the dough would have doubled.Punch down the dough and flatten the dough.Divide the dough into 6 -7 equal portions and keep the roll in a greased muffin tray.Keep each roll in each cavity of the muffin tray.

•  Now with the help of scissors make 4-5 cuts on the rolled dough.Make sure not to cut until the bottom.Brush each layer with the melted butter.

•  Keep the buttered rolls in a warm place for 30 minutes for the second raise. Before 10 minutes of the second raise preheat the oven at 400 F.Brush the rolls with  butter if needed.Bake it for 20 minutes or till the roll turned golden in the preheated oven.Remove it carefully from the tray and cool it on a wire rack.

• Serve it warm.

• Instead of bread flour,whole wheat flour or all purpose can also be used.
• If you want the roll to be on the sweeter side you can use up to 3 tbs of sugar.
• Grease the muffin tray with oil or butter.
• Make 5-6  cuts on the top of the rolled dough.
