You might think it is a bit strange adding cake mix to a dinner roll recipe. The added cake mix makes gives these dinner rolls a slightly sweet taste. They bake up nice and fluffy, making them perfect for the holidays.
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes. Stir in the flour and cake mix. Beat until dough is smooth. Add some flour on the counter and knead any additional flour into the dough. Knead until the dough is no longer sticky.
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; about 1 hour.
Lightly grease two large baking sheets. Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces and form into rounds. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes and then roll into 12-inch circles.
Cut each circle into 10 wedges. Brush melted margarine onto the circles. Roll up the wedges, beginning at the widest end. Place on the greased baking sheet with the ends of the rolls facing down.
Cover with plastic wrap that has been sprayed with baking spray. Let rise until doubled, about 25 minutes. Preheat oven to 350ºF (175ºC) and bake rolls for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Brush with additional butter before serving.
Note: If you cannot locate jiffy brand cake mix, you can substitute with 1 1/4 cups of a regular 18.5 oz yellow cake mix.
