I have written before about my woeful failure to produce light, tasty yeast rolls like my sister-in-law bakes for nearly every family gathering. Once again her rolls were to-die-for at our Thanksgiving meal. There was not a single one left over.
Being the stubborn (and competitive) person I am, I decided to try my hand at rolls again today. After all, if she could bake such good rolls, surely I could too. Of course I couldn’t let the fact that she had once run a very successful country style restaurant stand in my way. My failed rolls have always been the results of using the same recipe my SIL uses so I scoured Tastespotting for a different recipe.
Thanks to Cafe Johnsonia, I found an easy recipe that turned out great. Both my husband and son agreed that I had finally met the yeast roll standards – and they ate enough of them that I believed them.
Lindsey’s recipe is a step-by-step guide to refrigerator rolls and is illustrated with photos that show you exactly what to do as well as detailed instructions. She also includes instructions for Cinnamon Rolls and Orange Rolls using the same basic recipe. You can bet that I’ll be using this one again! Thanks Lindsey! You can find Lindsey’s recipe here.
