Rosemary Honey “Pull Apart” Dinner Rolls - Because You Love Them...Right?
Entertaining during the holidays usually means plenty of costly, complicated, and time-consuming recipes, so absolutely no one would blame you if you simply tossed a tube of store-bought dinner rolls into the oven to save a little time and effort.
Of course the problem with that, at least for loyal followers of this blog, is that some or all of your family members will have seen this video by then, and you may get a few looks. Not that they would never question your undying love and devotion to their happiness, but hey, why take a chance?
Assuming that you have an electric mixer, besides a few minutes of cutting and balling the dough, these really aren't that much work to make. If you don't, and would have to knead this by hand, then let your conscience be your guide. I think I speak for your entire family when I say, we know you'll do the right thing.
Anyway, as far as holiday dinner rolls go, these are pretty lean. You can certainly up the melted butter amount, and toss in a egg or two, but since these are generally going to be eaten with fairly rich food, I prefer a lighter approach.
Please feel free to embellish with anything else you'd like to toss in. I'll toss out garlic, herbs, cheese, seeds, and nuts just to start the brainstorming session. I hope you come up with something amazing, and give these a try soon. Enjoy!
