packages active dry yeast  
/2 cup warm water (105−115 degrees Farenheit)  
cup milk  
/2 cup butter or margarine  
teaspoons salt  
eggs  
1/2 cups sugar  
to 9 cups all−purpose flour  
Sprinkle yeast into water in large bowl. Scald milk, add butter  
and salt and cool to lukewarm. Meanwhile, beat eggs and sugar  
until light. Add milk mixture to eggs, then stir into yeast mixture.  
Gradually beat in 3 cups of flour with a wooden spoon. Stir in  
enough additional flour to make a soft dough that is workable and  
leaves the side of the bowl. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured  
board and knead for about 10 minutes, adding additional flour as  
necessary. Knead until dough is smooth and elastic. Put dough in  
lightly greased bowl, turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise  
in warm, draft−free place for 1 to 1 1/2 hours until doubled in  
bulk. Punch down and let rest for 10 minutes.  
Divide dough into thirds, and shape each into a ball. Flatten each  
ball (with hands) to 8−9" in diameter. Press into 3 greased round
