Wonderful Dinner Rolls

1 1/2 cups warm water
1 tablespoon yeast (1 pkg.)
1 tablespoon honey
31/2-4 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon malted milk powder
1/2 cup butter or margarine

Italian seasoning
garlic salt
Parmesan cheese

In a large bowl, put water, yeast, honey, and malted milk powder. Let set, undisturbed until a scum forms on the water, 10-15 minutes or so. Mix in 2 cups flour with the salt, then add 1 1/2 to 2 cups more flour by half cupfuls to make a soft smooth dough, not sticky. Knead on floured surface just a bit. Roll out into a rectangle to 3/4 inch thickness. Slice with sharp knife into desired shapes (squares or strips, etc.). Melt the butter and pour into a jelly roll pan. Roll dough pieces in butter and lay out in pan. Let rise. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic salt and Parmesan cheese. Bake at 400 for 10 to 14 minutes.

Mom used to make these quite a bit. The malted milk powder makes them super yummy. They really are wonderful.
