Method

1. Line a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine the milk, instant dry yeast, sugar, and salt.
3. Add the butter, egg, and 2½ cups all-purpose flour to the milk and yeast mixture. Using an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook on medium speed, mix until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl, adding additional flour as needed to prevent the dough from sticking to the sides of the bowl.
4. Divide the dough into 12 equal-sized pieces, roll the pieces into balls, and then place them in the bottom of the prepared slow cooker so they're touching.
5. Cover and cook on high for 2 to 3 hours.
6. Remove the rolls from the slow cooker and serve warm, or transfer to a wire rack to cool. Once cooled, store in an airtight container or storage bag for up to 3 days.
