12 Rhodes dinner roles, thawed but still cold
zest of 1 lemon
1/2 C. of sugar
3 Tbs. butter (melted)
Glaze:
1/2 C. powdered sugar
1 Tbs. lemon juice
Cut the rolls in half with scissors and line up in a greased or sprayed 9 X 13 pan. Make three rows of 8. Cover with the butter. Then mix the lemon zest and sugar together. Sprinkle HALF of that over the rolls and cover with a towel to let rise till they double in size. This is a great dessert to make before dinner and let rise while your eating. Keep the oven pre-heating @ 350, and have the rolls on top the stove rising. That way after dinner, you can pop the rolls in the oven for a warm, sweet dessert!
After they rise, they should look like the picture below:
Before baking, sprinkle with the rest of the sugar. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove from the pan immediately. If you don't, the carmelization from the butter and sugar will make them stick. ( this is the best part!!!). After you remove them, mix together the powdered sugar and lemon juice to create a glaze. Drizzle over and enjoy!!
These look yummy! The lemons on our tree are ready to be picked. I used some for cleaning but this would be so much better!
