Stir on low setting until the mixture starts to come together. This will be a wet, loose dough.
Scrape down the sides of the Kitchenaid and stir with the dough hook another two minutes.
Add remaining flour, ½ cup at a time, stirring with the dough hook on low until combined, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally.
Knead the dough for another 3-4 minutes in the KitchenAid. The dough will pull away from the bowl.
Remove the dough from the KitchenAid bowl and set the dough on a lightly floured surface.
Clean the KitchenAid bowl, then lightly grease the bowl with oil. Place the dough back into the bowl and cover it with a towel. Set in a warm spot and let rise until doubled in size.
Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Cut the dough in half. Then cut each piece in half two more times (you will have 8 sections). Cut each of those sections into 3 equal pieces. You should have 24 rolls.
Shape roll and place in 1-9x13 pan (18 rolls 3 across and 5 down) and in a 9x5 loaf pan (2 across and 3 down). Let dough rise for 1 hour.
Bake the rolls at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until rolls are golden brown. Remove from oven and immediately brush tops with butter.
Serving Suggestion: Use a Bread Basket warmer and Stone to take from oven to table and keep your rolls warm!
Store any leftover rolls in an airtight bag.
Notes
Please note that should you decide to use the bread machine to mix the dough, you should cut the recipe in half. The bread machine suggestion is only for mixing and proofing purposes, you are to not use the bread machine to bake the rolls.
