BUTTER ROLLS

For a long time, I've baked my own bread so trying out this sweet bread that is mildly sweet and tastes a lovely buttery flavor. With this same recipe you could make pecan rolls, raisin bun, cinnamon bun and many more. Using active dry yeast and kneading by hand is really challenging but it's worth your effort.  Butter Rolls came out fluffy, great to enjoy with a cup of coffee. For proper kneading method please see the attached video.
