I'm definitely not a pro when it comes to baking or cooking, but this recipe makes me feel that way. I followed the directions almost exact. The only differences i made was i added lemon juice (included it with the 2 cups water) from 1 lemon, and instead of regular sugar, i used caster sugar. The recipe did say not to stress about how much liquid there is once you add the sugar/water mix because the rolls were so tiny, so I have to say I was dubious. But I thought it was brilliant when the end result was that the rolls filled the dish perfectly, and the sauce was just perfect. It tasted perfect and rich and I felt like I was actually a decent cook (for a change) This is a great recipe for anybody who is new to baking, and wants to try something different and cool. Thanks Jesse and Eliza's Mom. It is a winner from my family!
