Perfect for Easter Dinner! You can have fresh homemade rolls in 40 minutes from scratch. No kidding!

I found a recipe and decided to play with it a little. I took a chance and the results were outstanding. Fast rolls from pantry to table in 40 minutes?? I know what you are thinking, I thought the same thing. “Sure they will be fast but, they will be dense little hockey pucks!” Nope, not even a little! They were fluffy and delicious! I believe bread flour would have been just great, but I did not have any on hand and just used regular all purpose and a little whole wheat! I used my trusty kitchen aid mixer which made this go very quickly.
