Yummy Yeast Rolls Recipe (from Indiana WOW retreat in March)

This is the recipe for the rolls that were served at lunch at the Central Indiana Women of Worth Retreat in March 2014.  This is the recipe for the rolls, only.  The cook used this roll recipe and stuffed these rolls with various meats (sausage, ham & pepperoni) for the retreat luncheon. They were delicious!
