Oops, didn't expect that with expired 2022 yeast.  Guess I need to make them smaller.  I use a bread machine and remove my dough to cook even for loaves.  But, I guess what I need to know is if I cut my dough in half and made the 8 rolls out of only half the dough, what would I do with the other half of the dough while I'm waiting for the first half to rise, cook, and cool?

I do a couple different things.

One cut all the dough into rolls, iqf some of rolls for later use (thaw in refrigerator overnight, proof, then bake).

Or I cut dough into rolls and keep part of qty in a cooler area until ready to proof.

I have kept dough (covered with plastic wrap) in refrigerator overnight and they still proof up just fine the next day. Sometimes the dough has even more flavor.

BTW...your rolls look wonderful. Just give me some butter.

@kate2357 thanks.  They're more like mini loaves then rolls, LOL.  Iqf?  I'm assuming you meant you freeze some of the dough shaped into rolls.

@Icegoddess 

Individual quick frozen.  I have a small pan with holes, I top pan with parchment paper, then put cut rolls on pan so they freeze as individual rolls. After they rolls are frozen, I throw them into a freezer bag and date.

I do this a lot because there are just normally the 2 of us here for meals. From the rolls I also make into breadsticks or pretzels.

Your rolls would also be great for sandwiches....cut a v shape into top, throw in some meatballs, cheese and sauce....yummy.

@Icegoddess Darker buns are delicious too- they pair nicely with honeybaked ham, cheese and dijon mustard.
