Cloverleaf Rolls
When I was a girl, it was a rare occasion when Mom made a gourmet meal. Most often, she relied on traditional recipes like this one. My sister and I ate more than our share of these versatile golden rolls. -Brenda DuFresne, Midland, Michigan

Ingredients

  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast

  • and shape into balls. Place three balls in each greased muffin cup.
