Famous Bread/Rolls Recipe

This is by far the yummiest bread recipe I have ever tried!  I have been using it for about 10 years now and I love it.  It makes yummy rolls, bread, and amazing cinnamon rolls.  It has been driving me crazy that it hasn't been added on here yet, because I have wanted the recipe when I have been traveling.  Finally.

Ingredients

2 c. hot water

1 stick butter, melted

2 tbsp. yeast

¾ c. sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp. baking powder

7 c. flour- (add more flour when kneading to reach correct consistency)

2 tsp. salt

Place water and yeast in bowl and stir ‘til dissolved. Add sugar and let activate. In meantime sift together dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Add butter and eggs to yeast mixture. Slowly mix in dry ingredients. Let dough rest 5 minutes before kneading for 5 minutes. For rolls, I like to tie knots. Let rise 1-2 hours at room temperature (until doubled in size) before baking at 420 for 10-15 minutes, and golden brown on top.
