Prepare the Dough
In a bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, eggs, and melted butter. Add the yeast mixture and knead until a smooth dough forms. Cover and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
