maybe if you mix the roll mix after dinner before you put your
kiddliwinks to bed , then punch down the dough before you go to bed and
leave to sit on the bench covered over night and punch down again in
the morning , before shaping and baking ..... make sure your oven is
nice and hot also

i have a bread machine and it has a dough function on it , i use that
to make bread rolls and at easter i made hot cross buns leaving the mix
over night ..... really light and tasty was the result

good luck with the bread rolls , let us know how you get on
