    1. Yes, I was actually inspired by a recipe that used store bought dough, but I wanted to provide an option for our whole foods readers. I’m sure they’re enjoyable either way.

  2. Yeah… I wish I had studied the unadjusted recipe before I used my “adjusted for 6 people” version through the recipe cards. Now I have 12 insanely huge rolls and an entire extra batch of dough. The recipe cards had me make enough for 48 rolls, the instructions say it yields 24, but the instructions only say to use ONE batch for 12 rolls. Should have said to divide in half and make 24 🙁 And I have no idea why it made me make 4 times as much dough as needed.

    1. Erin,
      I am having a similar issue. I adjusted the recipe for 12 people and I needed to put everything in a giant bucket meant for brewing beer! The dough just kept rising and rising even after I punched it down. Maybe it will continue to rise until it is refrigerated? I can’t fit it in the refrigerator but I did manage to find some space in the freezer. I hope that I didn’t ruin it!

      1. Yes, you should refrigerate this dough unless you are going to bake it right away. We will try to get the math issue cleared up. But in the meantime I hope that you enjoy the extra rolls. They can be frozen before or after baking.

  4. I want to make these, but now live in Morocco and I can’t find ready made dough here. I don’t know what crescent rolls are. Is.it a doughorpastry? Wheat dough recipe would work with these?
