How To Make refrigerator pan rolls
-
Step 1In a large bowl, combine sugar, salt, yeast and 2 1/4 cups flour. In 2 quart saucepan over low heat, heat water and 1/2 cup butter until very warm (120 to 130 F). (Butter does not need to melt.)

Beat in 3/4 cup flour or enough to make a thick batter; continue beating 2 minutes, scraping bowl wih rubber spatula. Stir in 2 1/2 cups flour to make a soft dough.

Step 4Punch down dough. Turn dough over; brush with oil. Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours or until ready to use, punching down dough occasionally.

Step 5About 2 1/2 hours before serving: Grease 15 1/2" by 10 1/2" open roasting pan. Cut dough into 30 equal pieces; shape into balls and place in pan. Cover with towel; let rise in warm place, away from draft, until doubled, abut 1 1/2 hours.
