Instructions: In a small bowl, place the yeast, 1/2 tsp. of sugar and warm water. In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs. In a saucepan, melt 1/2 cup sugar, salt, butter and milk, just until warm and melted. Add melted mixture to eggs, then add yeast mixture and flour. Whip with a fork and let rise once (about 45 minutes) in a warm place. This dough will be a little sticky. Form into 36 rolls with greased hands, and bake at 375 degrees F for 10 minutes.

Cinnamon Twists: Roll out dough into a 1/4 inch thick rectangle (long). Rub with melted butter, and sprinkle with 1/2 cup sugar mixed with 2 tsp. cinnamon.

Add raisins, and roll up and cut into 1/2 inch thick strips. Twist strips and place onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees F for 10 minutes.
