Ham and Cheese Buns

I used the base recipe for these buns from this recipe. This is a refridgerator dough recipe and if I use the entire reicpe it makes about 20-24 

depending on how large you make it. Any dough recipe works well for this.


These freeze well and are nice to have on hand.

Dough ingredients:

• 4-41/2 cups flour
• 1/4 cup sugar 
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 pkg. or 1 tbsp. instant yeast
• 2 cup very warm water
• 1/2 cup melted butter or margarine
• 3 beaten eggs
  
   
  
  Filling:
• Mustard of your choice, I used Dijon
• Ham slices
• 1- 1/12 cups Grated cheese, your choice, I used sharp cheddar cheese. 
•  

1. In a bowl combine 2 cups flour, sugar, salt and yeast. Blend well.
2. Add warm water, butter and eggs.
3. Blend at a low speed til well mixed, continue beating for two minutes.
4. Stir in remaining flour by hand until you have a stiff dough.
5. Cover dough with a plastic wrap a refrigerate for a minimum of two hour up to 4 days.
6. Take half the dough and roll into a large rectangle. 
7. Spread the dough with your favorite mustard, top with slices of ham, and grated sharp chedder cheese or whatever cheese you have on hand. 
8. Roll up into a log and cut into 12 rolls. (like when making cinnamon rolls)
9. Place into a 9x13 pan. 
10. Cover and rise for one hour.
11. Bake in a preheated oven @ 375 for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Watch your oven since every oven temperature is different.
