Tips:
- Use a warm milk-yeast mixture to activate the yeast. This will help the rolls rise properly.
- Add the eggs and melted butter one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. This will help develop the gluten in the dough, which will make the rolls chewy.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size. This will give the yeast time to work and produce carbon dioxide gas, which will make the rolls light and fluffy.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a roll and place them in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Let the rolls rise again for about 30 minutes, or until they have doubled in size. This will give them a chance to rise again before baking.
- Bake the rolls in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
- Let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
These cake mix yeast rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. They are soft, fluffy, and have a slightly sweet flavor. The glaze adds a touch of sweetness and shine, and the poppy seeds add a bit of texture. These rolls are sure to be a hit at your next gathering!
