Dough: In a large bowl, combine 1 1/4 cup flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Heat water, milk, and butter until very warm. Gradually add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed. Add egg yolks and 1/2 cup flour. Beat 2 minutes on high. Stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Divide dough in half. Spread half of the dough over ungreased 15 x 10-inch baking pan.
