In a large bowl combine eggs,sugar, melted butter and whisk until well combined.In another bowl pour in milk and water, sprinkle in yeast and let it seat for a minute.
Add yeast mixture to egg mixture and whisk until well combined.In a separate bowl whisk together salt and flour.
Add flour mixture to the egg mixture one cup at a time until dough just come together.Turn out onto a floured work surface and knead until tacky.
Transfer to a bowl and cover with a kitchen cloth and let it rise on the counter for 2 hours.The dough can also be refrigerated and rise overnight.
Flour a clean work surface,turn dough out on a floured surface, sprinkle with flour.Tear the dough into 12 even pieces.
Roll the dough pieces into 1/2 inch ropes.Shape the ropes into coiled buns,tucking the end under the bun.(as below but mine were not even)
Preheat oven to 350C.Place rolls in a pan loosely.Cover with kitchen towel and let it rise another 45 minutes.Using a pastry brush gently brush rolls with melted butter (mixed my butter with cinnamon for flavor).
Bake for 20-25 minutes until they are just beginning to brown.Allow buns to cool,sift generously with powdered sugar or cocoa powder.Enjoy with coffee.
