I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my rolls turned out flat and dense. I'm going to try again with a different recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of dinner rolls, but these were actually pretty good. They were soft and fluffy, and they had a nice buttery flavor.

These rolls were okay, but I've had better. They were a bit dry and didn't have much flavor.
