Tidbits...I can smell the sweet aroma of cinnamon and hot rolls in my mom's kitchen. This recipe always takes me back to those special years.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Scald milk, then dissolve sugar, butter and salt. Cool to lukewarm.
- In a large bowl add yeast to warm water and 1 tsp. sugar. Let rise.
