If you’re feeding people who love food as much as my husband does, planning ahead helps.
Assemble ahead: Prep everything, cover, and refrigerate up to 12 hours.
Bake fresh: Bring to room temperature before baking.
Reheat leftovers: Wrap in foil and warm in the oven at 325°F.
Though, realistically, leftovers are unlikely.
Common Mistakes (and How to Avoid Them)
Mistake 1: Too Little Butter
This is not the recipe for restraint. Butter equals flavor.
Mistake 2: Overbaking
Dry rolls lose their magic. Pull them when just golden.
Mistake 3: Skipping Fresh Garlic
Garlic powder alone won’t give you that bold aroma.
Why Everyone Asks for the Recipe
These rolls hit a sweet spot:
Familiar enough to feel comforting
Indulgent enough to feel special
Simple enough to make anytime
They don’t rely on fancy ingredients or complicated techniques. They rely on balance, generosity, and timing.
And apparently, they rely on self-control—something my husband temporarily lost.
