Double-Quick Dinner Rolls

I made these for a dinner party. I didn't have "shortening" and used butter instead. These rolls were heavenly!!! I served them with garlic olive oil and herbs so we could dip them. It was my first time making rolls (or any bread-type for the matter) and these were so simple! I will be making these again VERY soon!!!

These are super easy to put together when time is short. They raise into light airy rolls & can take a meal of leftovers a step higher--to planned overs!

Loved these! They look like muffins but are really wonderful, fluffy dinner rolls. These will be on our table often.

Very easy rolls, and very yummy!! So much better than store bought rolls!!

Wow. These rolls were great and had great texture. Soft not chewy and only took me an hour and 40 min from start to finish. It would have been quicker, but I wanted to bake them in an 8x8 pan, so I had to roll out 12 balls which was a sticky mess so I had to pull apart and flour each one so next time I'll just add enough flour to the dough until it's no longer sticky before the first rise. That'll make it a lot easier and a lot less messy. Anyways, my first rise, I let rise 30 min on a warm oven and after I rolled the balls, I let them rise 20 min in a 140 degree oven. They were so pretty after I buttered them and came out perfectly. Some family members ate 3 rolls. I wanted another but was too full lol. Also, I added 1/4 cup sugar total and 3 TBSP butter in place of shortening.<br/><br/>*UPDATE*<br/>These rolls are delicious and are my go-to rolls from now on. I had another one this morning for breakfast and I could really taste the flavor and appreciate the texture of these soft, buttery (thanks to my addition) rolls. Its a keeper for sure! I personally think adding a 1/4 cup of flour or more to the dough and rolling the dough in balls and placing them close together in a pan gives it a much prettier appearance and they'll actually look like rolls ;)
