Texas Roadhouse Rolls

2 cups milk
3 T. butter
1 T. yeast
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup sugar, divided
1/2 cup honey
7 1/2 cups flour, plus a bit more if needed
2 eggs
2 t. salt
butter for brushing

For Honey Cinnamon Butter mix:
1 stick butter, room temp
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup honey
1 t. cinnamon

Warm milk and set aside. Melt 3 T. butter and set aside. Combine yeast, warm water, and 1 T. sugar in mixing bowl. Allow yeast to bubble. Add remaining sugar, honey, warm milk, and 3 1/2 cups flour. Mix together. Add melted butter, eggs, and salt. Mix well. Add additional flour 1/2 cup at a time until dough no longer sticks to the sides of the bowl. Let rest 10 minutes. Knead for 5 minutes, adding additional flour if dough gets sticky. Don't dry the dough out it will be a bit sticky. Put dough in greased bowl and let rise until doubled in size. Punch down dough. Roll out in large rectangle until about 1/2 inch thick. Fold dough in half so it is now 1 inch thick. Cut into 2 inch squares. Place on greased baking sheet. Cover with greased plastic wrap and allow to double in size again. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until gold brown. Brush the tops of the rolls with butter as soon as you remove them from the oven. Best served warm with cinnamon butter.
