  • Let dough rest for 10 minutes, then shape into 1 to 1.5 inch balls and place into a well buttered pan.
  • Let rise in a warm location for 1 to 1.5 hours (the top of the dryer, when it is on, is a great place!) or until double in size, and then bake at 350℉ for 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes

-When shaping the dough into balls, butter your hands so that the dough doesn't stick to them. Make sure your pan is buttered on the bottom and up the sides.
-The serving size is set to 12 because no one in our family eats just one roll. One batch typically makes more than 3 dozen, depending on how big you shape them.
