Curious cat. Bad Bo......Not supposed to be up on the island. Easy to bake her into a loaf of bread. .....Well, actually, we were testing out the new Kitchen Aid Monster Mixer(first time). But it would have been posssible......just use butter as bait. Here, kitty,kitty....
WHITE BUTTER BREAD
1/2 cup milk, 3 tablesp sugar, pinch salt, 3 large tablesp butter.Heat this all together in microwave and let cool to a fairly warm, not hot temperature. You don't want the next ingredient to go "boom".....
When cooled to warm add 4 1/2 tsps fast rising yeast and 1 1/2 cups warm water, to the above mixture. Put into Kitchen Aid bowl,with dough hook attachment.
Add 3 cups of flour and let dough beat to a doughy pulp. (Wheeeee). Then add 2- more cups flour, adding 1/2 cup at a time, til dough pulls away from hook. Dough should be soft and a little sticky.
Place in greased bowl.
Let rise till soft and spongy..........
Divide dough into two, and place in two greased loaf pans, rise about 45 minutes ( I think I could have let it rise a little more), and bake at 400 about 30 minutes.
Made two smaller sized loaves. I was thinking afterwards that I would have made one LARGE loaf, instead of two smaller loaves, all depends on what you are craving, I suppose. Freezes great (if they make it to the freezer). Have to say that the test run of the Kitchen Aid was wonderful. Worked so fast and so easy.......now what else can I bake? Here kitty, kitty.......
