Icebox Rolls image

I remember my mom making these rolls almost every Saturday so they'd be ready to bake on Sunday for company or someone just dropping by. Although they take a little time to prepare, they're really not all that difficult to make. And there's nothing in the stores that can compare to them! -Jean Fox, Welch, Minnesota

These rolls were a complete disaster. I followed the recipe exactly, but they came out flat and flavorless.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my rolls turned out really dense.

The rolls were a bit too sweet for my taste.

I had a hard time getting the dough to rise. I think I might have needed to let it proof for longer.

These rolls were a bit more work than I expected, but they were definitely worth it. They turned out so beautiful and tasted even better.

I'm not a big fan of bread, but these rolls are an exception. They're so light and airy, and they have a delicious buttery flavor.

These rolls are amazing! I love that I can make them ahead of time and just pop them in the oven when I'm ready to serve.

These icebox rolls were a huge hit at our last potluck! Everyone raved about how soft and fluffy they were, and they disappeared in no time.
