In a small bowl, warm the milk to a temperature between 105 - 115 degrees F.
Add the yeast and honey to the warmed milk. Stir to combine and set aside to allow the yeast to activate, about 5-7 minutes.
After the yeast has activated, in a large bowl combine 1 cup of flour, the activated yeast mixture and the egg. Beat in a stand mixer until well combined, about 2 minutes.
Add the remaining flour, salt and butter. Knead for approximately 5 minutes until a soft dough ball forms.
Place the soft dough ball in a greased bowl, cover with a towel and place in a warm draft-free area to rise. (I place mine in my oven, turned off, light on). Allow the dough to rise for 45 - 60 minutes until doubled in size.
Punch the dough down and separate into 12 rolls.
Place the rolls in a well buttered baking dish (approximately 9 x 13).
Cover and set aside to rise for 20 - 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Brush the tops of the rolls with butter, sprinkle with salt, and bake for 15 - 20 minutes until rolls are golden brown on the top.
Remove from oven and brush again with butter. Enjoy!!
