These rolls are so good! I am so glad that I learned how to bake them. It is perfect for snacks and even lunch. Just make a sandwich out of it and that’s it! What I love about this recipe of rolls is the soft texture. I’ve had some rolls that are not soft, rather they are tough to chew but not this. Just make sure not to overcook them to get that nice and perfect texture. Enjoy!
