Making these fluffy dinner rolls is a straightforward process. Just follow these easy steps:

1. Activate Yeast: In a small bowl, combine warm milk and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast over the top and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.

2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.

3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and optional honey.

4. Combine Mixtures: Pour the yeast mixture and wet ingredients into the flour mixture. Stir until a dough starts to form.

5. Knead the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.

6. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours or until doubled in size.

7. Shape Rolls: Once risen, punch the dough down gently to remove air. Divide it into 12 equal pieces, rolling each into a ball.

8. Second Rise: Place the shaped rolls in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish or on a lined baking sheet. Cover and let them rise again for about 30-45 minutes, until puffy.

9. Preheat Oven: While the rolls are rising, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

10. Bake: Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter before placing them in the oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped.

11. Cool: Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Brush with additional melted butter, if desired.
