Instructions
Prepare the Dough:
In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
In a large bowl, combine the warm milk, granulated sugar, melted butter, salt, and eggs. Mix well.
Add the frothy yeast mixture to the bowl and mix.
Gradually add the flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
