1. In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and a pinch of sugar in the warm milk. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and melted butter.
3. Add the yeast mixture and the egg to the dry ingredients. Mix until a soft dough forms.
4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes, until it’s smooth and elastic.
5. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
6. Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a floured surface. Roll it out to about 1/2-inch thickness.
7. Cut the dough into 2-inch squares and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
8. Cover the rolls with a towel and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until they have doubled in size.
9. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
10. Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
11. Remove the rolls from the oven and brush the tops with additional melted butter while they are still warm. Serve hot.
