"Time investment includes the first rise of 2 hours, the punch down and resting time for 10 minutes, the second rise for 30 minutes, and the baking time is 15 minutes. From start to finish, you can knock these out in 3 hours. They are worth every minute - consider making a double batch and freezing half for later.The rolls can be made ahead of time - make a batch from start to finish, freeze the rolls, and pull them out as needed for dinner, brunch, snacks, a special meal, or holiday gathering, allowing them to unthaw and gently reheating in a low oven immediately prior to serving if desired - also see notes below. These are the best dinner rolls I've ever had. They are lightly sweetened from honey in the dough and are then brushed with honey-butter prior to baking, which lends both a golden color to the rolls and infuses them with a subtle sweetness. They are light and fluffy, yet have enough density, chewiness, and richness to be satisfying and hearty. They are not difficult to make and are a 5-gold stars recipe that I know I will make over and over, for years to come...."
