Bread Recipe

I decided to make Thursday another stay at home day but unlike yesterday where I held a precious angel for 4 hours and visted with Lisa . . . .I had to get motivated to clean the house. After the kids went to school I sat down with a cup of coffee and my Bible and read for a little bit. I then started some laundry and then headed upstairs to attack the upstairs! It is now 3:30 pm and I am almost through . . all I have left is our masterbath and then the upstairs is finished In cleaning I decided to do some baking. So, I made a loaf of bread and the dough for chocolate chip cookies. For lunch I warmed up some of the vegetable soup I made yesterday. That soup was even better today than it was yesterday. Well, the kids just got home so I need to make their afternoon snack. Recipe for Bread
I have a bread machine in which I use only to make the dough using the dough cycle.
1 1/3 cups of very warm water
3 tsp butter or margarine
4 cups bread flour
4 tsp dry milk
2 tsp salt
2 T sugar
2 tsp yeast.
After the dough cycle is complete I then take it out and knead it for a few minutes. I then get my Pampered Chef Loaf Pan and spray it with PAM. I then place the dough in the pan. I let the dough rise until doubled. I then put the bread in a 375 degree preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes. After baking I take the bread out of the loaf pan and put it on a rack to cool. I also take a stick of butter and go over the top of the bread lightly with butter. I wait for it to cool down before I cut it.
