For extra flavor, brush the warm rolls with melted butter immediately after baking. To make cinnamon rolls, roll out the dough after refrigerating, spread with softened butter, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, roll up tightly, slice into rounds, and bake as directed. Ensure the water for the yeast is not too hot, as it can kill the yeast. Use a thermometer for best results. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by adding 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt per cup of all-purpose flour.

03 Step
Recipe View In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture and the slightly cooled butter mixture. Stir in the beaten eggs and 2 cups of self-rising flour. Gradually add the remaining flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Divide the dough into two equal portions, place each portion in a lightly oiled freezer bag, and refrigerate for at least 24 hours, or up to 3 days. (15 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View When ready to bake, remove the dough from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to take the chill off.

Recipe View Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or a 9x13 inch baking pan.
