COMMENTS:  These are a really fantastic treat created by Evelyn Lum, who was my mother! She made many dozens of these rolls for numerous preachers of the gospel, and other guests in her home, although, she made the dough from scratch in the earlier years. During her later years, she started using the frozen bread dough, and that is the method I know. My mother departed this earthly life in June of 1997, and she left behind a wonderful array of memories of her cooking abilities, but more important, she has left all who knew her with the precious memories that can only be created by a true child of God!
