Even though I made a few changes to this recipe, I'm convinced it would've been great as written anyway. First of all, I halved the recipe being that I only needed dinner rolls for two people. I used white bread flour instead of all purpose flour, and I used sea salt as ususal. Also, I totally forgot about spreading the butter on top of my dough round until after I had already rolled up my crescents. So I just melted the butter and brushed it on the rolls - once before baking and once half way through. Great recipe, the rolls had a light crust and fluffy insides with good subtle flavor. If I was going to change anything I'd just add a pinch more yeast and maybe an extra tablespoon or two of sugar for more flavor, and I definitely want to remember rolling the butter into the crescents next time. I might experiment with using some whole wheat flour or some honey instead of sugar as well.

We really enjoyed these rolls! The day I made them we had a cool front come through so I ended up having to put them in the laundry room, turning on the dryer and closing the door but they did rise well.

Fabulous recipe! They turned out perfect the first time I tried them (and that's uncommon for me and bread recipes). I don't make any changes to this recipe. Its perfect as it is. This has become a family favorite.

The rolls tasted like part bread part biscuit... not sure if I did something wrong. They were not as fluffy as I hoped they would be, but they were still good. I used a mixer as suggested by others. I found the dough to be extremely sticky and had to add extra flour. I also tried making cinnamon rolls with half of the dough, but they turned out more like cinnamon bread than rolls. I will probably try this recipe again to see if things turn out differently, and although it was good, it wasn't exactly what I was looking for.

Absolutely delicious! Like other members, I don't either have a breadmaker... so I had to improvise. First I dissolved the yeast and 1 tablespoon sugar in warm water and let sit until bubbly. While waiting for the yeast I heated the milk in a saucepan, and added the butter until it melted. After removing the pan from the flame, I waited for it to cool down and combined it with the egg and yeast mixture in a large mixing bowl. Then I stirred the flour in one cup at a time until all the flour was used. Finally, I kneaded the flour for 5 or so minutes on a lightly floured surface, and then put it in a bowl covered with a clean dishtowel, and set it aside in a warm place. After about 45 minutes I punched it down and separated it into two. I then rolled each out into 12 inch circles, brushed them with melted butter, cut each into 8 even triangles, and rolled them out from thick end to thin. After placing the rolls on an ungreased cookie sheet, I let them rise for another 45 minutes, and then baked them for 12 minutes at 400 degrees. ::kisses fingers:: PERFECTO.

I am torn on how many stars to rate this. I made the dough and had to add more flour than called for and still yet the dough was sticky. (it rained that day but still, have never had to add that much extra before on a rainy day) When I rolled it out to make the cinnamon rolls the dough easily tore. It was very delicate. Now I have made many, many cinnamon rolls before. I only switched to this recipe because my parents have a bread machine and my recipe was too big, so I know how the dough normally feels. Even after all that my parents and my brother loved the rolls. (I live far away and don't get to visit but once every year and a half so this is the first time I made rolls for them) But having my own recipe to compare them too, I don't think they match up, that's why only 4 stars.

I received a bread machine for Christmas one year and all I had used in it was the pre packaged bread ingredients. YUCK! I was just about ready to give the machine away until I found this recipe over a year ago and love it! We have this at least once a week. I even put the left over in a zip lock bag and microwave them for a few seconds very good! They are also yummy with honey butter. Thanks for the recipe!

These were good, but a little more on the doughy side, but that could be my fault. I made these in the bread maker, then rolled them into balls and made cloverleaf rolls. I put them outside in the sun to rise. They were kinda a heavy yeast roll. I served them with honey butter. Needless to say everyone filled up on rolls, so I have plenty of left overs!! Thanks for the recipe.

Awesome recipe- I used the stand mixer-I did have to add a bit more flour (about 1/4+ C) maybe because of humidity? I didnt proof the yeast, I just added all dry ingredients, heated milk/water/melted butter, tempered the egg and mixed the whole thing with the stand mixer. The dough seemed a bit sticky when I put it in a greased bowl to rise, b
