    NO KNEADING! SO EASY, NO WAY TO MESS THIS RECIPE UP. These will be the most amazing rolls you've ever tasted and people will think you are lying when you tell them how easy they are. One modification: Flatten the dough a tad more and cut thinner, smaller strips. It makes more smaller rolls, which are better in a few ways: They bake thru faster. They are more bite sized so they seem to last longer for a large crowd. Uncle Clyde can take 4 rolls at once but there will still be tons more for the rest of the family :- These are AMAZING with sweet cinnamon butter on them as well.

    These are the BEST rolls I have ever made!! Yes, they do take patience and time, but they are totally worth it. If you're looking for a tender, buttery dinner roll than try this recipe. Everyone who has tasted these can't stop eating them, and you'll love the compliments:

    The enticing photo and step by step recipe in the FN magazine lured me into making bread for the first time. It was a very simple recipe to follow and I had great success! My family loved it...I feel like a master baker now!

    The rolls are amazing! I've been trying my hand at homemade bread to the point my family, who are serious bread eaters, have refused to be my testers. This is the first time I've made dinner rolls and they've turned out right! They're not only right but they're great. They're light and fluffy and not too dense at all. According to the videos I've been watching I did make a couple of changes. I increased the yeast for the amount of flour I used and I used bread flour. I was doing laundry and set my covered bowl on top of the dryer and it rose in less than an hour. I punched it down and let it rise again. Once I shaped the rolls they set on the stove and rose a third time. My rolls, needless to say, were not the size of the ones on the main photo. They looked just like them, only jumbo sized. My family loved them though, that's what counts! If I can do it, anyone can. I definitely recommend trying it.

    I LOVED these. All i wanted to do is eat these for days! I saw this in the FNmagazine and wanted to make them, but couldn't find the right magazine. So i found it here and so glad i did! It makes a lot but you can freeze them in a freezer bag and reheat them wrapped in a paper towel for a few minutes in the microwave or in the oven. Still taste amazing. I'm in the process of making these again as i type this. They're rising at the moment. Definitely try this recipe. I know a lot of people had issues with them being to dense. Maybe you read the ingredients bit wrong...i did the first time and realized there was WAY to much yeast in the bowl so i read it again and realized i had read it as 1 oz. plus 1/4 oz. instead of just a 1/4 oz. of yeast. That would have made them SUPER dense. I have nothing but good things to say about these rolls. I'll be making them at my parents house next weekend for them since my mother and yeast don't get along in the kitchen. ;

    I have never made bread or rolls before but this was the first thing I wanted to make after seeing it in the Food Network Magazine. As a beginner bread maker, this was a good place to start. I followed the recipe exactly as it was shown. I did need to add a little extra flour during the mixing process because it was still very moist. When I set it out to rise, it did get bigger but did not double in size. I continued with the recipe anyway and still came out with 24 big rolls in the end. They were soft and moist and quite a substantial roll. My family is already requesting them for Thanksgiving! I will definitely make these again.

    These are scrumptious. Will definitely save this recipe. However, I did use two packs of yeast for the amount of flour the recipe called for.

    I love these rolls. I mix sugar and barley malt to add some extra flavor.

    I tried this recipe for the first time and followed it exactly. The dough took longer than expected to rise and to cook. The rolls looked exactly like the picture however they were very dense and flavorless. My grandpa who makes rolls all the time says he uses 2 tsp of yeast to 3.5 cups of flour. I will make these again with more salt and more yeast - I would probably double both.
