You've Got to Be Kidding Me Restaurant Rolls (or Bread)

By Stina

This is really more a tip than a recipe - It is so ridiculously easy. After hunting high and low for the recipe for restaurant yeast rolls/bread that are served in many chain restaurants & steakhouses, I was astonished to learn that very often they merely use pre-made ordinary yeast dough and honey flavored margarine - The secret "recipe" I had been searching for was actually just a method.

Ingredients

• 1 lb frozen bread dough, thawed according to package directions (honey wheat or white)
• 1 -2 tablespoon margarine, to taste (not butter)
• 1 -2 teaspoon honey, to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Directions:

1 Thaw frozen dough, let rise, and bake dough all according to package directions- either for a loaf or rolls.

2 When the bread has baked and while still warm, combine margarine and honey well and spread liberally all over the top of the warm bread.

3 It should be glistening.

4 You may serve right away, or you may prepare earlier in the day and set the warm, glistening bread inside a resealable plastic bag.

5 It will stay very soft this way and can be reheated as desired later the same day.

6 Serve warm with real butter or more honey margarine mixture, as desired.

7 Note: Surprisingly, homemade doughs don't produce the same texture as the frozen doughs- so if you really want that restaurant taste, the purchased stuff is actually the way to go.
