Introduction
These cheeseburger buns are definitely a comfort food but great with a crisp green salad. In my family, they are loved for picnics. As an alternative to making the dough from scratch, store-bought rolls can be used for this recipe, but calories would need to be adjusted appropriately. I have also had great luck making this bread dough in my food processor which is much faster and easier on the wrists. Enjoy!

Ingredients
-
2 Packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water (110 to 115 degrees)
3/4 cup warm milk (110 to 115 degrees)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup shortening
1 egg
1 teaspoon salt
3-1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/2 pounds ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 small can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
8 ounces Velveeta cheese cut into 1/2 ounce pieces
Directions
In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add milk, sugar, shortening, egg, salt and 2 cups flour; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 4-6- minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover; let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.
In a skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in tomato sauce. Remove from the heat; set aside. Punch dough down; divide into 16 pieces. On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out and stretch each piece into a 5-in. circle. Top each circle with 1/2 ounce cheese and about 3 tablespoons beef mixture. Bring dough over filling to center, pinch edges to seal.
Place seam side down on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 20 minutes. Bake at 400 degrees for 8-12 minutes or until golden brown. They will look like fat, flat buns. Serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers. Makes 16 buns.
