Virginia Box Bread Recipe

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the eggs, butter, sugar, salt and 2 cups flour; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours. Punch dough down. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 13-in. x 9-in. rectangle. Transfer to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Using a sharp knife, cut dough into 16 squares. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 375° for 20 minutes or until golden brown. To serve, separate into rolls. Yield: 16 servings.
