Need a Recipe for School Rolls (The Huge Doughy Ones)

Good morning, I have a good recipe and it takes on one hour.

@ dissolve 2 cakes or 2 packs dry yeast in 1/4 C luke warm water.
@ Put 1 1/2 C milk, 3 T. sugar, 1/2 t. sugar & 4 T. butter in a pan on stove and heat to lukewarm.
@ add yeast & 3 C flour stir until blended.
@ put in warm place for 15 min. !I cover mine with toweling)
@ turn out on floured surface and press to 1 inch thickness.
@ cut out medium circles.
@ Fold dough over bits of butter.
@ Place on greased cookie sheet ~~ let rise 15 minutes.
@ Bake 10 min. in a 350 degree oven.
This may sound like a lot of work but it really isn't and they are soooo good.
Hope this is what you wre asking for. Good Luck K. P

I agree! Rhodes Texas style are the best! My secret is to let them get really puffy, and then underbake them just a bit. It makes them turn out just like Bob Evans. Good luck--- with a toddler, you can save your time for more important things, like napping!

I think what you're looking for is a recipe for those huge cinnamon rolls, right? I was hoping someone had one, I'd love to have it too, but it doesn't look like that's what you've gotten help with. (At least I've not found cinnamon rolls from Rhodes near me like we're talking about) I wonder if they still sell them at the schools? Maybe we could check with the kitchen staff on how or where they get them. Just fyi. Those were to die for though weren't they?!! Too bad my mamaw is no longer with us, I know she could make them and give us a recipe!

We love the "RHODES Rolls" from your frezer section ~ Texas style.
We also loved a local restaurants rolls and when they went out of business I looked for a comparable bread and this is it! Follow the package instructions. (we love to eat them with honey butter!)

(4.5/5 stars out of 276 rating)
SERVINGS: 15
INGREDIENTS
• 1 teaspoon white sugar
• 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
• 1/2 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/4 cup white sugar
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup butter
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup chopped pecans, divided
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 cup melted butter
DIRECTIONS
1. In a small bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon sugar and yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes. Warm the milk in a small saucepan until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Mix in 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup butter and salt; stir until melted. Let cool until lukewarm.
2. In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture, milk mixture, eggs and 1 1/2 cup flour; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
3. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
4. While dough is rising, melt 3/4 cup butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in 3/4 cup brown sugar, whisking until smooth. Pour into greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Sprinkle bottom of pan with 1/2 cup pecans; set aside. Melt remaining butter; set aside. Combine remaining 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup pecans, and cinnamon; set aside.
5. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, roll into an 18x14 inch rectangle. Brush with 2 tablespoons melted butter, leaving 1/2 inch border uncovered; sprinkle with brown sugar cinnamon mixture. Starting at long side, tightly roll up, pinching seam to seal. Brush with remaining 2 tablespoons butter. With serrated knife, cut into 15 pieces; place cut side down, in prepared pan. Cover and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in volume. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (** may get moister rolls if you do not melt butter but instead spread room temp butter)
6. Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool in pan for 3 minutes, then invert onto serving platter. Scrape remaining filling from the pan onto the rolls.
