Basic Sweet Dough for Yeast Coffee Cakes and Rolls

This is an easy refrigerator dough method, which requires no kneading. Once refrigerated for 2 to 24 hours, it is easy to shape and bake a number of different ways. These breads are rich with special ingredients, which will all brown quickly while baking. So, the baking temperature must be lower than that of conventional ovens while the baking time remains about the same. You’ll be delighted with the moist crumb; because the crust is formed early in the baking, it locks in moisture.

Cooks' Note

If you are in doubt as to whether you have added enough flour, keep in mind that it is better for the dough to be a little too wet than a little too dry.
