Directions
-
In a large bowl or bread machine, combine bread flour, active dry yeast, sugar, butter, cardamom, salt, powdered buttermilk, and water.

Knead the dough until smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes by hand or according to bread machine dough cycle instructions.
-
Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 12 to 15 equal pieces.
-
Roll each piece into a rope about 6 to 8 inches long.
-
Tie each rope into a simple knot, pinching the ends together to seal.
-
Place the rolls, pinched end side down, in a lightly greased baking pan.
-
Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
-
Preheat oven to 350F (175C).
-
Bake the rolls for 13 to 15 minutes, or until tops are golden brown.
-
While rolls bake, mix 1 tablespoon melted butter and 1 tablespoon sugar in a small saucepan over low heat until the sugar is slightly dissolved.
-
Remove rolls from oven and immediately brush with the warm butter-sugar mixture.
