Apparently the recipe for these buns was downloaded 2511 times in 1 hour from the author’s website, hence the name. I can see the reason for this as they’re ridiculously good – crispy golden exterior, tender crumb, buttery and a little salty….a perfect dinner roll.
The dough is a simple yeast bread enriched with buttermilk, butter and sugar. It’s very easy to work with and the rising times are quite reasonable (less than 1 hour each time). Assembly requires you to divide the dough into small pieces, dip in melted butter and arrange in a muffin tin to make individual buns. Initially, I baked as directed but the buns were very large.
Since I was serving these for Thanksgiving dinner and wanted much smaller portions, I baked and served it much like monkey bread, distributing the butter dipped balls of dough evenly among 3-9” cake pans (for a double batch of dough) – guests were able to help themselves to however many they wanted.
