Grandma’s Famous Rolls

Dissolve dry yeast in warm water in large mixing bowl. Add eggs, sugar, softened butter, salt and 3 cups of flour. Beat until smooth. Add the rest of the flour 1/2 cup at a time and continue to beat until smooth.

Place dough on floured surface and knead for 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Pour 1/8 cup olive oil into large bowl. Place the dough into the bowl and pour remaining 1/8 cup oil over top. Swish dough around to make sure all surfaces are covered in oil. Cover with plastic wrap or warm, wet towel and refrigerate for at least 2 hours but up to 2 days (I usually refrigerate overnight).

Once dough has risen in refrigerator, take it out and punch the dough down. Shape dough into 24 evenly sized balls. Place in two greased 13 x 9 inch pans, leaving a little space in between. Cover with a warm, wet towel and let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature to rise.

Bake at 350ºF for 20 minutes.
