School Lunchroom Cafeteria Rolls

“These rolls are JUST like the ones the cafeteria ladies make in the school lunch rooms! My 8 year old daughter loves the cafeteria rolls and said my recipe was even better! You can't mess these up! They are super easy and everyone will want the recipe! We eat the leftovers for breakfast or put cheese and turkey in warmed rolls for a quick lunch!”

Oh my goodness, these are better than what I expected, especially with my bread talents. :) This was so easy and not time consuming at all. And it made a lot of rolls. Thank you so much this will now be my roll recipe. I may add some herbs and cheese next time to spice it up.

These rolls were delicious - just what I was looking for. I served these right from the oven at dinner, and they were the best part of the meal. I made half a batch (about 24 rolls) and they were all gone the next day - the kids wanted to take them to school for lunch. Thanks for the recipe, MOMMY2THREEANGELS, I'll be making these again and again and probably during the holidays too. Update: I like to scale the recipe down to 15 servings and make the dough in my bread machine. I've replaced up to 1/3 of the flour with ww flour. I don't make these as often as my kids request because I usually eat too many (the big reason why I never make a full batch). Enjoy!

These were exactly what I was looking for! I followed the recipe to a T (although I scaled it down by half) and they were perfect. My husband and kids couldn't eat them fast enough. I ended up making a second FULL batch the same day! Since then I've made them several times and frozen the dough once the rolls are shaped. They thaw beautifully. I have made one small change though, I started substituting whole wheat flour for 1/3rd of the white flour. They don't rise as high, but the flavor is not affected, and I'm getting some whole wheat into my kids. Thanks for a FABULOUS recipe!

Out of this World!! Can't brag enough about this recipe. Freezes well if you can manage to hide any before they're all eaten up.

I was pleasantly surprised by these rolls-- I wasn't sure, since the name sounds kind of strange, but they turned out awesome. I used fat free margarine substitute in place of the butter and shortening to cut back on some of the fat. They were very good with soup or for breakfast the next day, and we thought they had plenty of flavor. Honey butter is a great idea to make these even better! Thanks for a great recipe!
