I add ingredients as stated on my bread machine. Water, egg, sifted flour, sugar, salt, 1/4 cup margarine (I like it better and it works great) and 2t of yeast. I skip steps 7-9 instead I make balls and dip them in melted butter then after the rolls have doubled in size I crease the center of the rolls with a spatula. Then I let the rolls rise another 15-20 minutes before baking. Thanks DonnaTMann.

Wow. This recipe is terrible. I usually don't write reviews unless something is absolutely superb, but this is so ridiculously bad that I have to. This recipe calls for way too much butter. On top of that, something is wrong with the balance of ingredients. Nothing rose properly and I know my yeast is good because I used it for a real Parker House rolls recipe. I was hoping to save some effort before traveling for Thanksgiving by using this recipe, but it was just a major waste of time.
