Instructions

1
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine the flour, instant yeast, granulated sugar, and salt. Add the warmed milk and egg, then mix on low speed until a shaggy dough forms, about 2 minutes. Add the 2 tbsp softened butter and increase to medium speed, kneading until the dough is smooth, slightly tacky, and pulls cleanly from the sides of the bowl, about 6–8 minutes.
2
Shape the dough into a ball, place it in a lightly oiled bowl, and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight — the cold, slow rise develops flavor and makes the dough easier to laminate.
