My good friend Bev has a lovely blog site where you can steal...uh...copy... recipes.  She is a person of multi-talents, and cooking is just one of them.  She crochets faster than lightening, and takes care of her family members.  She donates some of her crochet items to charity, and is an all around wonderful human person!  I adore her!  So, here is one of her many recipes that I stole....I mean, copied.  ;o)


Cuban Rolls

1-1/4 cups water
4 cups flour
4 tsp. sugar
2 tsp. salt
2-1/4 tsp. yeast
4 tbsp. soft butter

Put all the ingredients in your breadmaker and set to "dough." When done form into six sandwich buns. Let rise until about double in size. Bake at 400 until golden brown (about 20 minutes). You can also make dinner rolls if you make them smaller.

I should also say you can make this without a breadmaker. I just find it easy to use mine because it's always out on the counter. Regardless of how you make it, always start with the liquid first.
