Why recepie famous for?

These soft little rolls come with a surprise inside—savory Italian meatballs. They're wonderful dipped in marinara sauce, making them fun for my grandkids and adults, too. I love how easy they are to put together.

Ingredients

12 frozen bread dough dinner rolls
1 package (12 ounces) frozen fully cooked Italian meatballs, thawed
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup minced fresh basil
2 tablespoons olive oil
1-1/2 cups marinara sauce, warmed

Instructions

Let dough stand at room temperature until softened, 25-30 minutes.
Cut each roll in half. Wrap each portion around a meatball, enclosing meatball completely; pinch dough firmly to seal. Place on greased baking sheets, seam side down. Cover with kitchen towel; let rise in a warm place until almost doubled, 1-1/2 to 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350°. Bake buns until golden brown, 12-15 minutes. Brush tops with oil; sprinkle with cheese and basil. Serve with marinara sauce.
