Description

These Refrigerator Rolls are the ultimate convenience food for busy mornings or unexpected guests. By preparing the dough well in advance and letting it rest in the fridge, you ensure a flavorful, tender crumb without the last-minute rush. The recipe uses a generous amount of sugar and fat to create a rich, slightly sweet bread that holds up beautifully to freezing or refrigeration. Perfect for breakfast, as a side for soups and stews, or even for homemade burgers, these rolls offer a homemade taste with minimal effort on serving day. The dough is soft and pliable, making it easy to shape into small, uniform rounds. Once baked, they boast a golden-brown crust and a pillowy interior that is irresistible warm from the oven.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve the margarine in the boiling water.
  2. Stir in the cold water until the mixture cools to lukewarm temperature.
  3. Beat in the eggs, sugar, salt, and yeast until the mixture is frothy and well combined.
  4. Gradually add the flour, mixing until a soft, sticky dough forms.
  5. Knead the dough briefly to combine, then cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap.
  6. Refrigerate the dough overnight or for up to 24 hours.
  7. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let it stand at room temperature for 15 minutes to soften.
  8. Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface.
  9. Roll the dough out to a thickness of about 1/2 inch.
  10. Cut the dough into rolls using a round cutter or glass, spacing them 2 inches apart on greased baking sheets.
  11. Cover the rolls and let them rise in a warm place for 30 to 45 minutes, or until doubled in size.
  12. Preheat the oven to 400&# 194;°F (200ðC).
  13. Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter.
  14. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  15. Serve warm.
