I tried these this morning. I only have a hand held mixer, so I figured out real quick that you have to just get your hands into it. It was a glorious mess, but I had a lot of fun too. Also, they didn't rise at first. I guessed that my house is too drafty and set them on the stove and turned the stove on-with the door cracked a bit. That worked really well. I made one batch, and froze the other two for dinner tomarrow. Oh, I hope they turn out as good as the first ones.
Update:
The frozen batches didn't work for me. They wouldn't rise and they turned out flat and hard. I would make these again, but I would make all 3 batches and then freeze the extra rolls after their baked.
