Easy and delicious!

I used the hot water to melt the butter. May have been a mistake because it didn’t rise at all the first hour and was very thin. I added more flour and covered it again. If it doesn’t rise I have a bowlful of something I can’t use
Ariel Rhodes
Delicious, definitely delicious… I did add about an extra cup of flour to work the dough. After reading the reviews, next time I will not add flour and just oil my hands and see how they come out. Till next time…

I’ve used this recipe over a dozen times. It’s never failed. I’m made dinner rolls, cinnamon roll and most recently jalapeno cheddar bread in cast iron skillet. Great base recipe. Thank you for sharing
Miss Mary Hughes
I love this light dough! Will be using it for cinnamon rolls next!
Scott Williams
Recipe turns out great ! However I use butter not shortening
Terry Lewis
I prepared exactly from recipe, 1st time ever making a roll from scratch. They were so light and fluffy and full of flavor. Directions were also very easy to follow for any level cook/baker or someone that doesn’t cook at all. Thanks I will be enjoying this again.
Mr. Larry Griffith
Easy to make, taste was meh
Robert Caldwell
I couldn’t get the mixture to do anything but be gummy. We didn’t have rolls for Thanksgiving. Very disappointing.
Albert Banks
Will definitely make again. I made these with my kids. Super easy and delicious!

My new go to for dinner rolls! Great for high altitude. Used butter instead of margarine. The dough was much more sticky than expected. I floured my hands and got them rolled on the pan. They were wonderful and baked in about 25 mins.

I usually never comment on these things however this one I am. I made these for my family, I followed the directions step by step however this was a major disaster, WORST RECIPE I HAVE EVER TRIED.
Kenneth Hubbard
I screwed up and they still turned out great. My wife and kids could not believe I did it. Thanks a lot.
Michael Brown
Had to add a lot of flour to get the dough to come together in a ball, then wound up with very dense rolls.
Brad Torres
This recipe can’t be used as written. We had to rescue it after it turned out like pancake batter. Even after adding flour we had to bake them in a muffin tin because they weren’t firm enough to stand on their own.

I have to agree with other users. This recipe needs to be revised. If you are new to baking breads you should not use this recipe. The ratios are WAY off. For once, I went against my gut to add what would have been over 1 cup more flour to get the consistency correct. I wanted to see how making this to direction would turn out. It was a big waste of ingredients!
Curtis Moran
I made it just like the recipe and it turn out Excellent !! very soft and good , i worked it in the bowl a little , to mix in the remaining flour . i love the dinner rolls .
Molly Lopez
This could have been an error on my part, but they just didn’t rise at all
Edwin Davis
I see people either did well or did not with this recipe. The reason for this is that the recipe leaves out a huge step. After you make the walnut sized balls with the dough- you have to let it rise again before putting into the oven. And for at least 30 min. I made it both ways and if you let them rise again before baking, they will come out great!
Lisa Hickman
The rolls tasted great, but the water to flour ratio was WAY off, I couldn’t even keep track of how much more flour I had to use to make the dough usable. I think is you maybe halved the water and kept the flour amount it might work better… This is maybe try again recipe.
