    These were so good and yummy! Here's a tip, if you want it less dense, at 2x the amount of yeast like idid. I used 1 packet for half the recipe. also, this recipe is EXTREMELY bland so add more sugar and a wee bit more salt and your good to go. I use this recipe all the time. Great recipe!!!!

    First time trying these rolls, they had a great flavor but were very dense and heavy. With 6 cups of flour, the dough never formed a ball in the mixer, I kept having to add more flour. It was way too sticky. The dough never really doubled in size either after 80 minutes. I haven't ever made rolls before, so I did a fold under (like pizza dough and wound up with the bottom part of the rolls falling apart. Not sure if I'll try them again.

    I have made these rolls several times. Everyone who has tried them has said that they are the best mouth-watering, moist, and tasty rolls they have ever had, and usually end up eating few. Frankly I don't know how my guests have had enough room for their meal. I highly recommend this recipe!

    Delicious rolls. I used 2 pkgs Active Yeast, otherwise followed the recipe. I probably added an add'l 1 cup of flour while kneading the first time. To form rolls, I rolled the dough to 1/2", used a 3" biscuit cutter, then dipped the dough in melted butter & folded the disc in half (traditional Parker House rolls. Light, tender, and oh so good! Baked @ 400 degrees, about 18 minutes.

    These are amazing! I used almost an extra cup of flour and let them raise around 15 minutes longer during each time. THey are soft and fluffy and delicious looking and tasting. Can't wait to see what my family thinks. I am going to make a cinnamon-honey butter to serve with them.

    This is the first time I've tried this recipe, and it's definitely a keeper. I made them into burger buns for pulled pork BBQ. Not needing such a large quantity, I decided to half the recipe, and still used the full pack of yeast. I also dissolved the sugar in the water prior to adding the yeast instead of dissolving it in the milk as called for. To shape the rolls, I used a large glass to cut them out of the dough and they came out perfectly shaped, and not dense at all after baking. I also used regular flour, and did not have to use any more than what was needed. I think I can kiss store bought buns good bye and plan on making this instead!

    Made these on Thanksgiving, and they were excellent. The dough was pretty sticky while kneading it, so I did have to add some more flour, and it did take a little longer to rise than expected, but other than that they were great. Made great rolls for leftover turkey sandwiches.

    I made these for the first time yesterday (Thanksgiving, and they came out absolutely wonderful - a hit with everyone! A couple of notes that echo other reviewers: I had to add additional flour during the hand-kneading process (the dough had never formed a ball in the mixer and was sticky, and the dough did take a long time to rise (maybe an additional 1.5 hours. The end product though was medium-light in texture and beautiful out of the oven - not to mention delicious. I will make these again and again.

    This was a great recipe. When I first made it, it remaindered me of "Long Loaf" bread that we get back home (Fiji Islands. It is hard to find that bread hear. So it is a great collection to my recipe box...
