Flaky Butterhorn Rolls image

These dinner rolls, slightly sweet and so very flaky, were my mother's recipe. They are simple to prepare because kneading skills are not required and the dough is easy to handle. My grandchildren have renamed them Grandma's Croissants! -Bernice Smith, Sturgeon Lake, Minnesota
