   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
      1/2           cup  water -- warm, (105F to 110F)
   4 1/2            tsp  active dry yeast -- (1/4-oz.,2 envelopes)
   6        tablespoons  granulated sugar -- divided, plus
   1               tsp.  granulated sugar
   2              large  eggs -- lightly beaten
   1                cup  buttermilk -- whole, at room temp
   1 1/4      teaspoons  kosher salt
      1/2           cup  unsalted butter -- melted and divided, plus
   2              Tbsp.  unsalted butter
   3 3/4           cups  all-purpose flour -- divided, (to 4C)
      1/4           cup  unsalted butter -- softened and divided
                         Flaky sea salt -- (such as Maldon)

It wouldn't be a holiday feast without a fresh batch of homemade 
bread. These buttery rolls with golden, pull-apart layers are 
finished off with sprinkles of flaky salt. The dough for Buttermilk 
Fantail Rolls is very easy to work with (in fact, our Test Kitchen 
called it "extremely forgiving"), but it needs to rise twice, so be 
sure to allow enough time. Or bake the rolls a day ahead, reserving 
the melted butter and sea salt in Step 5. Let them cool, and store in 
a ziplock plastic bag. Reheat in a 300F oven 10 minutes, or until 
warm. Brush warm rolls with melted butter, and top with sea salt.

Active: 45 mins
Chill: 8 hrs
Total: 10:15

Combine warm water, yeast, and 1 teaspoon of the sugar in a 1-cup 
liquid measuring cup; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.

Stir together eggs, buttermilk, kosher salt, 1/2 cup of the melted 
butter, and remaining 6 tablespoons sugar in a medium bowl. Add yeast 
mixture and 3 1/2 cups of the flour; stir until a dough forms. 
Sprinkle a work surface with 1/4 cup of the flour; turn dough out 
onto floured surface, and knead until smooth and slightly elastic, 
about 4 minutes, adding up to an additional 1/4 cup flour, if needed. 
Place dough in a lightly greased bowl; turn to grease top. Cover with 
plastic wrap, and chill 8 to 24 hours.

Coat 2 (12C) muffin pans with cooking spray. Punch chilled dough 
down, and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough in 
half. Roll 1 dough half into a 16- x 12-inch rectangle (about 1/4" 
thick). Brush top with 2 tablespoons of the softened butter. Starting 
from a 12" side, cut dough into 6 (2" wide) strips. Cut dough strips 
crosswise into quarters. (You will have 24 [4- x 2"] dough pieces.)

Stack 3 dough pieces together, buttered side up. Top with a fourth 
piece, buttered side down. Repeat with remaining 20 dough pieces, 
making 6 stacks. Cut each stack in half crosswise, making a total of 
12 stacks of 2" squares. Place 1 stack on its side, layers facing up, 
in each muffin cup. Cover loosely with plastic wrap. Repeat process 
with remaining dough half, 2 tablespoons softened butter, and muffin 
pan. Let rolls rise in a warm (80F to 85F) place, free from drafts, 
until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 375F. Bake rolls until golden brown, 12 to 15 
minutes. Brush rolls with remaining 2 tablespoons melted butter, and 
sprinkle with desired amount of sea salt.
