Dinner Rolls

So...I don't have a lot of Thanksgiving type recipes on my blog, but today I was thinking I'd do a post linking to a couple of recipes that I have that would go great with your Thanksgiving meal.  As I was looking through the recipes, I realized that the pictures that go with my favorite rolls were REALLY bad!!  So, I made some rolls this afternoon so that I could take some more pictures.  I am going to re-post the recipe with these much improved (but still not great) pictures!

 

 This recipe was adapted from a recipe my friend Molly gave me, that is why they are aka as Molly's rolls.  I adapted the recipe to make a smaller batch that I could mix in my Kitchen aide.   These rolls really are quick, easy and so light and fluffy :)
