Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Brush a 9-inch square baking dish with 2 tablespoons melted butter.
• Whisk flour, 2 tablespoons white sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Work 3 tablespoons softened butter into flour mixture using your hands. Beat milk and egg together in another bowl; pour into flour-butter mixture and stir with a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms.
• Turn dough out onto a floured work surface and roll dough into a 1/4-inch thick rectangle. Brush surface of dough with 2 tablespoons melted butter.
• Whisk 1/2 cup white sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Sprinkle 1/2 of the cinnamon sugar mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon sugar over butter-brushed dough. Roll dough around filling to form a log; cut log into 18 rolls and place rolls in the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until rolls are set, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Beat confectioners' sugar, cream cheese, 1/4 cup softened butter, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until frosting is smooth. Top hot cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting.

CLASSIC DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine 3/4 cup flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Heat milk, water and butter until very warm (120 degrees to 130 degrees F). Add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add 1/4 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed. Stir in enough remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.
• Divide dough into 12 equal pieces; shape into balls. Place in greased 8-inch round pan. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
• Bake in preheated 375 degrees F oven for 20 minutes or until done. Remove from pan; brush with additional melted butter, if desired. Serve warm.

30 MINUTE DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Mix warm water, oil, sugar and yeast; let rest for 10 minutes until yeast activates.
• Add salt and beaten egg; blend well.
• Add flour, one cup at a time until soft dough if formed.
• Knead on a floured surface 5-10 minutes or until dough is smooth and elastic.
• Shape into small balls (walnut sized) and put into a greased baking pan.
• Let rise at least 5-10 minutes.
• Bake at 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
• *If you have more time, you can let the rolls rise in the pan until they have doubled in size.

QUICK YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the shortening, sugar, and hot water. Allow to cool until lukewarm, and mix in the yeast until dissolved. Mix in the egg, salt, and flour. Allow the dough to rise until doubled in size.
• Grease 8 muffin cups. Divide the dough into the prepared muffin cups, and allow to rise again until doubled in size.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.

MISS BETTY'S SUPER QUICK DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). If you are not using a nonstick muffin pan, grease 5 cups of a regular muffin pan.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, milk, and mayonnaise. Spoon into the 5 prepared muffin cups.
• Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until nicely puffed and browned.

DOUBLE QUICK DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add potato flakes, sugar, salt, egg, vegetable oil, onion powder, and 1cup of the flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in remaining flour. Continue stirring until smooth, scraping batter from sides of bowl.
• Cover and let dough rise in warm place until doubled, about 20 to 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease 12 muffin cups.
• Punch down dough. Spoon dough into 12 greased muffin cups, filling each half full. Let rise until batter reaches tops of cups, or about 20 minutes.
• Bake in a preheated 400 degree F(200 degrees C) for 15 minutes. Serve immediately.

EASY BREAD ROLLS

Steps:

• Tip the flour, yeast, sugar, salt and oil into a bowl. Pour over 325ml warm water, then mix (with a spatula or your hand), until it comes together as a shaggy dough. Make sure all the flour has been incorporated. Cover and leave for 10 mins.
• Lightly oil your work surface and tip the dough onto it. Knead the dough for at least 10 mins until it becomes tighter and springy - if you have a stand mixer you can do this with a dough hook for 5 mins. Pull the dough into a ball and put in a clean, oiled bowl. Leave for 1 hr, or until doubled in size.
• Tip the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a long sausage shape. Halve the dough, then divide each half into four pieces, so you have eight equal-sized portions. Roll each into a tight ball and put on a dusted baking tray, leaving some room between each ball for rising. Cover with a damp tea towel and leave in a warm place to prove for 40 mins-1 hr or until almost doubled in size.
• Heat the oven to 230C/210C fan/gas 8. When the dough is ready, dust each ball with a bit more flour. (If you like, you can glaze the rolls with milk or beaten egg, and top with seeds.) Bake for 25-30mins, until light brown and hollow sounding when tapped on the base. Leave to cool on a wire rack.

QUICK ROLLS

Steps:

• Proof the yeast with a bit of the warm water and sugar in a small bowl.
• Meanwhile, mix the flour, remaining sugar and salt together in a large bowl.
• When the yeast is foaming and bubbling after a few minutes, mix it into the dough along with the two eggs, warm water and oil.
• Knead the dough (it will be sticky) until smooth and elastic.
• In a KitchenAid mixer this only takes a couple minutes on speed 3.
• Let rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Punch down and then shape into rolls and let rise again.
• I like to make cloverleaf rolls with this recipe, which involves placing three balls of dough, no bigger than a ping pong ball, in a greased muffin cup.
• Once the balls have risen again, brush with the beaten egg for a nice brown finish and bake in a hot oven.
• The time will depend on the size, but mine take about 15 minutes at 200 C.
