Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Serve warm and enjoy! (20 minutes)
For enhanced flavor, consider using butter instead of shortening.
Freezing the dough after forming the rolls is a great way to have fresh rolls on demand.
Ensure the water is warm, not hot, to avoid killing the yeast.
If you don't have time for a full rise, you can do a slow rise in the refrigerator overnight.
