    really good and easy. even the kids helped make the rolls. I used a breadmaker for the kneading part.

    Tweak: CHEWLY Made it healthier:

    Oh, this is really good. Made it once with wholemeal flour and it was still very light and tasty. If you use veggie oil instead of butter - this becomes a vegan recipe.

    Review: TUNISIANSWIFE

    I had lost my favorite roll recipe and decided to try these...wow! I have this one saved. They turned out like a picture...and so fluffy and light but yet rich buttery flavour. They were not at all heavy...feathery light. After the rolls came out of the oven, I immediately brushed the tops with butter using a pastry brush. Everyone raved about them.

    Review: THEINGRAMS4

    My first attempt with this recipe wasn't all that great, but my second attempt...brill! I made my rolls a little bigger so I yielded 18 rolls instead of the 24 stated in the recipe. The 18 rolls turned out large and fluffy, with a great taste that didn't need any extra butter on top.
