- Set the rolls on a baking sheet at least 3 inches apart, bake in the top third of the oven (*325*) for about 25 min, or possibly till they are set and lightly browned on top. Cold the rolls for 5 min or possibly so, then slice diagonally into 1/2 inch thick slices. Lay the slices flat on the baking sheet and return to the oven for another 10 min. Turn the slices over and bake for another 10 min. Cold on a rack, and keep in a tightly covered tin - they keep for months.
