I cannot tell you how many times I have read this recipe. Punch, let it rise, punch, let it rise. Oh man... I was freakin' out!
I was telling a friend of mine about how stressed out I was to be trying a recipe that calls for yeast! I don't do yeast. And I was scared. This friend... who reads this blog said... "Are you more afraid of the dentist, or yeast?" Ha ha!! Too funny. But... I don't know the answer to that question.

Truthfully... I'm more afraid of the dentist.
So, I finally tackled this very stressful project on Sunday afternoon. And when my dough started to rise... I called the family in to see it! NO.ONE.WAS.IMPRESSED. Kaleigh actually said... "it is just dough mom!" Whatever!! I was thrilled. And let me add... punching the dough was fun!
The rolls were delicious!! Yummy!!! And I will definitely make them again! Yeast still stresses me out a little... but I don't feel like I have "yeast-phobia" anymore.
I can't wait to try these and the to die for roast, they are on my menu for this week, can't wait to try them.
ReplyDeleteIt stresses me out too but these look awesome! Maybe I will make these Sunday - and maybe that roast too, hmm...
ReplyDeleteOK hold on - 9 cups of floour seems like it would make a million rolls. Did it?
