Dough Ingredients
- ½ cup instant mashed potato flakes
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2 Tbsp butter, softened
- ½ cup hot water
- â…“ cup cold water
- 2 cups Bisquick mix
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 450ºF (232ºC) to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking the rolls.
- Mix the Dough: In the bowl of an electric stand mixer, combine the instant mashed potato flakes, sugar, softened butter, hot water, cold water, and Bisquick mix. Mix on low speed until a soft dough forms, about 1 minute.
- Shape the Rolls: Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface into a 10 x 6-inch rectangle. Cut the dough into 12 equal squares to form the rolls.

- Bake the Rolls: Bake rolls in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until golden brown on top. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Using instant mashed potato flakes helps create a light, tender texture in the rolls.
- Make sure the water is hot but not boiling to activate the ingredients properly.
- Butter should be softened to blend evenly into the dough.
- Baking on parchment paper prevents sticking and helps with easy cleanup.
- These rolls are best served warm but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
