Heaven on Earth!


Thanks to Grandma Suker who let me borrow a new recipe book the other day. I was feeling adventurous and wanting to bake up something (It was cold then not hot like it is today). So I thought, why not white rolls! Yum. Yum. Yum. These rolls are absolutely fabulous. I must admit they turned our perfect every time. I have since made them again, and again. And then my sister made them and they turned out perfectly for her too. So I think the recipe is a keeper. It was SUPER simple and they taste heavenly right out of the oven. I would recommend this recipe to anyone so I'm giving it to all of you to try. Let me know if they work out as well for you too! Good Luck...have some strawberry jam on hand because it's a perfect combo...Here come the next Thanksgiving rolls.

Crescent Rolls – (The Food Nanny – Liz Edmunds)
(makes 2 cookie sheets, 48 rolls, 24 on each pan)

4 T. yeast
½ c. + 2 T. warm Water


Mix together and allow sitting for 10 minutes.

Mix together very well in separate bowl:

6 eggs
1 c. oil
1 c. sugar


Warm milk in the microwave only until warm NOT scalding.
2 c. warm milk

Add egg mixture and warm milk to the yeast mixture. Mix all together until combined.

10-11 c. flour
2 T. salt

Add 1 cup of flour at a time until combined together. Continue to mix/knead for 5 minutes on med-high speed. Allow to raise 2-3 hours.

Separate dough into 6 even balls. Roll out each ball until the size of a dinner plate on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 8 pizza wedge slices. With each wedge, roll down ward wrapping bottom skinny bottom piece down and around to make pretty crescent shape. Place 3 rolls across and 8 down, 24 on each cookie sheet.

Allow to double in size while covered with clean dish towel (about 15 minutes). While raising on top of oven, preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Bake one sheet at a time. Bake 6 minutes on bottom rack and then 5 minutes on middle shelf until light golden brown. (Before you take them out, double check the bottom to make sure they are golden brown, not too light they could be doughy). Once they are perfectly golden brown, brush tops with melted butter once removed.
