| 1 | Combine milk and sugar. Sprinkle with yeast and let stand for 10 min or until frothy. | 2 | Meanwhile, in a large bowl, using electric mixer, beat 1/3 cup sugar and 2 of the eggs for 7 min or until thick and pale yellow. Stir in yeast mixture, oil and salt. Stir in enough flour to make firm, slightly sticky dough. Turn out onto lightly floured surface. | 3 | Knead, adding flour as required, for 10 - 12 min or until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, turning to grease all over. Cover and let rise for 2 hours. | 4 | Punch down, divide in half. Roll out each half on a lightly floured surface into 16 x 12 inch rectangles. Brush each with half the melted butter, leaving 1/2 inch border; sprinkle each with half of the cheese and poppy seeds. Beat remaining egg; brush over long edges. Starting at long side, roll up tightly, pinch seam to seal. Cut into 3/4" thick slices and place on greased baking sheet. | 5 | Cover and let rise for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Brush lightly with egg. Sprinkle with sliced onions. Top each bun with 1 tsp mayonnaise. Bake at 375 degrees for 25 to 30 min or until golden brown and bottoms sound hollow when tapped. Let cool on racks. Makes 20 buns. |
