07 - 1 large egg

# How-To Steps:
01 - Combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast in a large bowl. Let rest for 5 minutes until slightly foamy.
02 - Add melted butter, egg, and salt to the yeast mixture and mix thoroughly.
03 - Gradually incorporate the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
04 - Knead on a floured surface for 5 to 7 minutes until smooth and elastic, or mix with a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook for 5 minutes.
05 - Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough inside, cover with plastic wrap or a damp towel, and let rise in a warm place for 20 minutes, until nearly doubled.
06 - Punch down the dough, divide into 12 equal portions, shape each into a ball, and place in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
07 - Cover loosely and let rise for 15 to 20 minutes until puffy. Preheat oven to 375°F during this time.
08 - Bake rolls for 18 to 20 minutes, until golden brown on top.
09 - Remove rolls from the oven and immediately brush the tops with melted butter. Serve warm.
