family favorite dinner rolls

Recipe by
Sheila from Briarwoods Farm

I could have sworn this was a King Arthur recipe, but I could not find it, all I had was a printout of a Word document I had obviously copied and pasted from somewhere. I've been making this recipe for years, but can't find the original file on my computer any more either, so decided to save it here as well as on my new computer. I wanted to try the Japanese Milk Bread recipe for soft dinner rolls this Easter, but my teenager insisted on making these, "because it's tradition!" If anyone knows where this recipe originated, I'd love to give credit - my printout says it makes "12 -16 Units US"
