MIMI'S NEVER FAIL REFRIGERATOR ROLLS
These are one of the types of rolls I make for every holiday. I had very disappointed grandson's when my oven was broken and couldn't make them once. This is a very requested recipe that I have used since the 70s. This dough can be made ahead and kept up to 1 week in the fridge, but it doesn't last that long around here.
