Do they need to rise again after shaping into roll before baking
Debbie from Rhodes
You just need to let the dough thaw before working with it. It doesn’t need to rise before shaping. After the rolls are shaped then let them double in size before baking.
Donna
shouldn’t the part about rising after shaping be included in the recipe?
Thank you!
Debbie from Rhodes
You really don’t need to let them rise. So that is why it isn’t in the recipe. Once you roll them, to put in the muffin pan, you can bake them from there. The warm oven will raise them enough.
Sherry
Could you do this without the filling ..just for the shape itself?
Debbie from Rhodes
Yes, you certainly could it do it without the filling! Enjoy!

Is there a trick to rolling out the dough?
Debbie from Rhodes
Sometimes when you roll the dough out, it may “snap” back at you and not hold its shape. If that happens, the gluten needs to relax. Roll it out the best you can and then covered with sprayed plastic wrap and let it relax for 5-10 minutes. You may have to do this several times until it holds its shape. Hope that helps you!

Can you use Rhodes loaf dough instead of the rolls
Debbie from Rhodes
Certainly! They are both the same recipe. One loaf of bread is equivalent to 12 Dinner size rolls or 8 larger size rolls.
