How can anyone have Thanksgiving dinner without the "dinner roll"....dripping with butter of course. This has to be the most decadent recipe...but it is so easy and so good. I have made these for years and every time, they are better than I can remember. After all...it IS Thanksgiving so put your calorie counter away and enjoy the bountiful table we are blessed to present.
I found this recipe somewhere.....but fail to recall where. If I have copied your recipe...just accept the compliment and know your talent had to be shared.

These look delicious!
Bill, I have been looking for a good yeast roll and now I have one. All three of your recipes would be a great addition to any meal. Thanks
You are so right Bill. Dinner when I was growing up always included a homemade roll in my mother's home. Hope you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
