    These were very good. I think my yeast was too old though. They didn't rise very much. Will have to try again when I get new yeast because the flavor was fantastic. - 11/20/11

    I used only whole wheat flour(not sure how that changes cals)..I also had to add dash of water to make it come together...also only got 18 about 1 inch thick rolls...baked 18 minutes and they were DELICIOUS!Next time I'm doubling it!lol oh, and 9x13 pan was too big...used 2 6x6 ones... - 6/3/11

    These were a good-low cal treat, not like Pillsbury, but yummy. I used half w.w., half a.p. flour. Next time I will use all a.p. flour, top with a dab of applesauce before baking & substitute f.f. cream cheese for the butter in the glaze for a different flavor. Even my picky kids wanted an encore! - 3/5/11
