  2. Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into small balls.
  3. Arrange the balls in a greased baking dish, cover, and let them rise again for about 30 minutes.
Baking
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Brush the tops of the rolls with melted garlic butter before baking.
  3. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the rolls are golden brown and fluffy.

Notes

These rolls are best enjoyed warm, straight out of the oven. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for a couple of days or freeze in a resealable bag for longer storage.
