TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + rising Bake: 20 min.
YIELD: 15 rolls.
Over the years, I've added a pinch of this and a dash of that to this recipe until my family agreed it was just right. These rolls are especially good served warm with spaghetti and lasagna.
Ingredients
-
3-1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
-
2 tablespoons sugar

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
