CHEESY ONION BUNS
1 Pkg dry yeast
1 beaten egg
¼ c warm water
6 to 7 cups all purpose flour
2 cups milk, scalded
2 c shredded sharp cheddar cheese
½ c sugar
1 t salt
1 T melted butter
Dissolve yeast in warm water; set aside. Combine milk, ¼ c. butter, sugar and salt in bowl; stir until butter melts. Cool to 110 degrees. Add egg, yeast mixture, and 2 c flour; mix well. Stir in cheese, onion and enough remaining flour to make a soft dough.
Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface; knead 8 to 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Shape into a ball. Place dough in a greased bowl; let rise in warm place 1 ½ hours or until doubled in bulk.
Punch dough down; cover and let rest 10 minutes. Divide dough in half; divide each half into 10 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, and place on greased baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Press each ball down lightly to resemble a bun.
Cover and let rise in warm place 1 ½ hours until doubles. Bake in 375 degree oven 15 minutes or until golden.
