In a mixing bowl, combine the warm milk and sugar, then sprinkle the yeast on top. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy.

Add the melted butter, salt, and egg to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine all the ingredients thoroughly.

Start adding 3 ½ to 4 cups of flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough forms.

Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

Punch down the risen dough and turn it onto a floured surface. Divide it into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball.

Arrange them in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Cover with a towel and let rise for another 30-40 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

Brush with melted butter right after baking.
