Thanksgiving dinner is arguably the best meal you will eat all year long. The turkey, ham, stuffing, mashed potatoes, pies, and ROLLS.

Oh man, the rolls. I would rather eat rolls than cake. I love them so much that if given the choice between a tender, fluffy roll and a cookie, I would have to think long and hard about that choice. (Bread and cookies are my two favorite food groups :))

When I was a kid, we used to go up to Logan, Utah and have Thanksgiving with the whole extended family. I had a TON of cousins, and it was always so fun to get together.

But waiting for the dinner to start was agony. The sweet old aunts were the ones in charge of the food, and as I passed by the trays of rolls sitting on the kitchen counter, it was all I could do not to steal one. What rapture when the prayer was said and were finally allowed to fill our plates!

The great thing about rolls is that you can just stack them on top of everything if you run out of room! You’re definitely going to need to do some roll stacking with these 20 To-Die-For Thanksgiving Roll Recipes. Let me know which ones you try and how you liked them!

These Easy Pretzel Rolls from Sally’s Baking Addiction are another winner! I recently made these and fell in love! The outside has such a pleasant crunch and the inside is so tender and chewy. You boil these in soda water for one minute before you bake them. That’s what makes the outside crunchy. Totally worth it, and so fun to make!20 To-Die-For Thanksgiving Roll Recipes - Beautiful Life and Home (3)

Here’s something I want to try this year. It’s these Thankful Rolls (also from The Girl Who Ate Everything). You can use the Lion House Rolls dough from the link above. The idea is that you write “I am thankful for…because…” on a piece of paper, wrap it in foil, and then place it in the middle of the rolls. Each paper will say a little something different, but each person who takes a roll will finish the sentence with what they are thankful for. What a fun idea!
