If you are making rolls or bread daily, for the evening meal it will be easy to change the dough into sally lunn. Make up the dough at, say, 11 0'clock, the same as at No. 532 and let it rise until 3. Then take nearly all, or 2 1/2 pounds, or 5 or 6 cups of the dough.
1/2 cup butter, melted.
3 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs and 2 yolks.
1/2 cup warm milk.
2 cups flour.
Work them all together and beat up very thoroughly. It is like muffin dough or fritters, too soft to handle.
Let rise until 5. Beat again. Divide it in 4 or 5 pie pans previously buttered and rise half an hour, then bake and have them hot and ready at 6. Cut like pieces of pie carefully with a sharp knife not to crush it. Send it in instead of rolls. Makes 24 to 28 cuts; costs 20 or 21 cents.
