1:
BASIC SWEET DOUGH: Stir together 1 3/4 cups flour, yeast, and salt in a large mixer bowl.
Heat milk, water, butter, and sugar until very warm (120° to 130°F). Add liquid ingredients to flour mixture; beat until smooth, about 2 minutes on electric mixer. Add egg and 1/2 cup more flour and beat another 2 minutes.

2:
Gradually add enough more flour to make a soft dough. Turn out onto floured board; continue to work in flour until dough can be kneaded. Knead until smooth and elastic,
but still soft (about 5 minutes). Cover; let rest about 20 minutes. Shape, let rise, and bake as directed as follows.
