Hawaiian Sweet Rolls

Here’s my recipe for Hawaiian Sweet Rolls perfect as a side dish for many dinners! Make Hawaiian sweet rolls tonight and don’t forget to add butter!

One of my favorite things to make as a side dish for family dinner is Hawaiian sweet rolls. They really add incredible flavor to any meal and are a fantastic buttery complement to any meat dish. Add some grass fed butter to these to really add some caloric depth to your meal.

This recipe makes about 16 rolls so you will have an abundant amount for the whole family, which is great because they will go fast!

Enjoy!
