2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature in 1/2 inch pieces |

1 teaspoon active dry yeast, instant or bread machine |
2 tablespoons milk, for brushing tops of rolls |

1. Place cubed sweet potato in a small saucepan and cover with water by 1 . Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook 15-20 minutes, until sweet potato is tender. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup of cooking water. Puree sweet potato.
2. Combine 1/2 c sweet potato puree, dry milk, brown sugar, butter and salt in bowl of stand mixer with paddle attachment. Mix until combined. Add flour and yeast and mix on low until incorporated.
