Grandma's No-knead Yeast Rolls

"These are wonderful rolls, especially when you slather them with butter. Even I can make these and I don't consider making bread as one of my specialities. My aunt and I compete at Christmas dinner to see who can eat the most. I'm not revealing my record. :)"

  1. I must have done something wrong. they were a complete failure for me. Sounded good though lol
     
  2. Easy and delicious! I didn't roll these out; I wet my hands with water and formed them into balls by hand and put them in cake pans to bake. My family LOVED these. I will be making them again.
     
  3. These were so easy to make. Didn't take as long as I thought it would. I know wished I would of made a double batch. I will be making these again. My family loved them. My husband is telling me I have to make more tomorrow. Thanks for the great recipe.
     
  4. I never have been able to do the dough thing, but this one really worked. I did do a little mixing with the hands, but all in all, the rolls are wonderful. And I won't ask how many you eat at Christmas dinner. Thank you very much! Melody
