Have you tried brioche dough? What I do for regular dinner rolls
would be perfect for you... if I ever measured and wrote it down.

Here's what I started off using, but use more like 1/3 c honey now (I
just pour) instead of sugar, 1 egg and no lemon peel.

1/2 c milk
1/4 c butter
1/2 t salt
1/4 c sugar
1/8 c warm water (to proof yeast) 110° to 115°)
2 eggs, beaten
1 t lemon peel
2 1/2 c sifted flour
