Posted in response to a recipe request. Recipe from a Fleischmann's bread recipe book that I ordered from the company in the '70s by sending in empty packets that yeast came in. While I haven't tried this recipe, every other recipe I tried has been wonderful! Times listed do not include freezing or rising times.

Almost any occasion's right for these handy rolls-I keep them in the freezer for Sunday meals and for company (they have never failed to taste fresh), and I've served them for everything from baptisms to family dinners. My husband and I have three children, ranging in age from 8 to 4.

Tips:

  • Use active dry yeast for the best results. If you're using instant yeast, reduce the amount by 25%.
  • Make sure the milk is warm, not hot. Hot milk will kill the yeast and prevent the rolls from rising.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will take about 1 hour.
  • Punch down the dough and shape it into rolls. Place the rolls on a greased baking sheet and let them rise again for about 30 minutes.
  • Bake the rolls in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  • Freeze the rolls in a single layer in an airtight container. They will keep for up to 2 months.
  • To reheat the rolls, thaw them overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for several hours. Then, bake them in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes, or until they are warmed through.
