Ingredients

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1-1/2 cups warm water (110° to 115°)
3-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 package (9 ounces) yellow or white cake mix
1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

2. Punch dough down; divide in half. Roll each portion into a 12-in. circle; cut each circle into 12 wedges. Roll up, beginning at the wide end; place point side down on greased baking sheets. Brush with butter. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 25 minutes.
3. Bake at 350° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
