I did the recipe exactly but I skipped step 6 and went to 7, let rest overnite inside the oven (I warmed the oven first, then turned it off and placed the rolls covered with plastic wrap)...They tripled in size and baked for 20 mins at the 350 degrees...Came out perfect with better scent, fluffy and soft---exactly the way I like to take me back to my origins :-)
