Notes

Prepare the rolls ahead of time by completing all of the steps up until baking. Once you’re ready to bake them, take them out of the fridge while you preheat the oven and bake once preheated. Store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 5 days. To reheat, place on a microwave-safe plate and heat for 15-20 seconds. Be careful to not overheat.
