Making your own dinner rolls are surprisingly easy and when you taste these soft rolls, you'll agree they are superior to any store bought ones.
Baking bread is a complete joy for me and I had a lot of fun experimenting classic recipes with a new twist. How about baking this Dark & Soft Dinner Rolls for breakfast or snack? These rolls get its color from cocoa powder and instant coffee.
The dough for these Dark & Soft Dinner Rolls have a nice texture and is simple to shape. One of the important elements in getting a perfect roll is the liquid. It should be lukewarm rather than hot. Small difference in the amount of water can make a big difference to your finished loaf. Too little liquid creates a dense and dry loaf.
When you make bread by hand, kneading and shaping it lets you get a good feel for the dough and its elasticity. If it is too sticky, leaving it for 10 minutes after mixing can help. Remember, you will get better as time goes on.
