Sweet Dinner Rolls
Posted on 05 October 2010
Nothing seems to complete a perfect meal quite like homemade dinner rolls. The wonderful yeasty aroma filling the house before you sit down to eat just adds to the anticipation of the meal. And oh the buttery goodness….
My absolute perfect “go to” dinner roll recipe comes from my mom and we make them every holiday. However, they do require a few days planning in order to achieve their perfection. That kind of schedule really isn’t practical for day-to-day meals.
I’ve started experimenting with some roll recipes that use the bread maker for dough preparation. Scoff if you will, but that appliance can turn out a great roll and still allow me to do what I need to around the house.
We were absolutely delighted with how these turned out! In fact, if it wasn’t for the fact that it’s rather socially unacceptable I probably would’ve eaten far more of these than what I did. 
SWEET DINNER ROLLS
adapted from All Recipes
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup warm milk
1 egg
1/3 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 t salt
3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 package yeast
Place ingredients in the pan of your bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer and choose the dough/knead cycle. When the cycle finishes turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough into 12 chunks, then form into rolls and place into muffin tins lightly sprayed with Pam. Cover rolls with a towel slightly dampened with warm water and place in a warm place. Let rise for 1 hour.
Bake rolls at 400F for 10-15 minutes or until tops are golden brown. Open the end of a stick of butter and run along the tops of the rolls for wonderful buttery flavor.
NOTE: This recipe takes about two and a half hours from start to finish.

I use my bread machine all the time and never understand why so many people turn their noses up at the idea of those things. They are very convenient. I love rolls, but I eat gluten free and can’t have the “regular” ones anymore. Those look really, really good though
