When I was growing up, my parents would sometimes take us to Grants 5 and dime. Their hot dogs were served on the most delicious buns. sliced on the top, with the sides toasted in butter, they were amazing. I could never find those buns since they closed.
It was later in life that I discovered, they were actually New England style buns. This is my version of what I remembered as a child.
Ingredients:
3 cups bread flour
1 tablespoon potato flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons instant yeast
1 teaspoon diastatic malt
2 large eggs
3/4 cup of evaporated milk
5 tablespoons room temperature unsalted butter cubed
ABegin by warming the milk in your microwave, shooting for a temperature of 105 degrees.
Add the yeast and sugar, allowing the mixture to rest a few minutes. If its starts foaming, then your yeast is good, and you may continue.
Add the remaining ingredients, except the butter, and mix with a dough hook on low. Once completely mixed, allow to rest about five minutes.
After resting, add the butter a few cubes at a time, mixing on low. Mix until all the butter is incorporated.
Place dough in an oiled bowl, allowing to rise, until double in size.
Remove dough from pan to a floured surface. Divide dough into 10 equal pieces. I use a scale to do this, but you can eyeball if you don't have on. 
Roll dough pieces into logs and place in your roll pan, making sure the edges touch.
Cover and allow to rise for about 30 minutes.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 20 minutes, then carefully remove from oven and allow to cool.
