Notes
Make sure your milk is the right temperature before adding it in to the rest of the ingredients. For active dry yeast, the temperature should be between 105 and 110°F.
The dough will be sticky! Dust the counter top with flour before you start rolling out your dough. Sprinkle flour over the rolling pin then roll the rolling pin over the flour you sprinkled on the counter to cover it on all sides. Then add your dough onto the flour-covered surface and you are ready to roll...literally.
Use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into 16 pieces. Trust me, it makes cutting the dough into equal pieces so much easier than using a knife.
