Dorothy Dean Favorite

The Spokesman-Review

Here is a Dorothy Dean recipe that is requested often. It is one of the favorites of some of the women who served as Dorothy Dean over the years. The last time it was reprinted in the paper it contained a typo. Here is the corrected recipe:

3 tablespoons butter

1/2 cup sugar

Scald milk. Add butter, sugar and salt; cool to lukewarm. Stir in crumbled yeast and eggs. Add 1 cup flour; beat well. Cover; let rise in warm place until light and bubbly, about 1 hour.
