NOTES:
* Holiday rolls with oatmeal and molasses -- This
recipe has long been part of my Thanksgiving
tradition. I have long since forgotten its source.
* These rolls are really wonderful, but they need
time to rise. start them as early in the day as
possible. Don't even think about using the quick-rise
yeasts.
: Difficulty: easy to moderate.
: Time: several hours preparation, 1 hour baking and
cooling. : Precision: measure the ingredients.
