SWEET DINNER ROLLS



I made these rolls to go with last night's dinner. I used the bread machine to complete the first rising stage. You don't need a bread machine though. You can mix everything and left it rise on it's own. You then just follow the rest of the directions.
This dough was so easy to roll out. It never stuck to the rolling pin which IMO, is rare!
They were light and fluffy. Scott couldn't get enough of them and must have had at least 10 of them. He blamed me for putting them in front of him!
I think next time I make these, I may add some herbs to give it more of a savory flavor and see how they are. DELICIOUS!
