Ingredients
Instructions
- Bring milk, sugar, and margarine to a boil.
- Roll each biscuit out flat.
- Place 1 pat of margarine and 1 teaspoon sugar in the center of each biscuit and pinch the edges together.
- Arrange the filled biscuits in a 9 x 13-inch pan.
- Bake at 350°F for about 15 to 20 minutes until browned.
Tips & Substitutions
For best results, roll the biscuits out evenly to ensure consistent baking. If you want to add a twist, consider using flavored butter or adding a sprinkle of cinnamon inside the biscuit before sealing. You can substitute the margarine with unsalted butter for a richer flavor. Don't hesitate to experiment with different types of sugar, such as brown sugar, for a deeper taste.
Serving Suggestions
These saucy butter rolls are delightful served warm, drizzled with extra melted butter or a light dusting of powdered sugar. They pair wonderfully with a side of fresh fruit or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for dessert. For a complete meal, consider serving alongside a light salad or a bowl of soup for a comforting lunch.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover butter rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes or until warmed through. If you prefer a softer texture, you can microwave them for about 20 seconds, but be careful not to overheat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use homemade biscuits instead of canned?
Yes, homemade biscuits can absolutely be used for this recipe! Just ensure that they are rolled out to a similar thickness as the canned ones for even cooking. This can add a personal touch and allow you to customize the flavor and texture to your liking.
What can I do if I don't have enough butter?
If you're short on butter, you can replace part of it with vegetable oil or coconut oil. Alternatively, you can use yogurt or applesauce to reduce fat while still maintaining moisture. Just keep in mind that this might slightly change the flavor and texture of the rolls.
Can I freeze these butter rolls?
Yes, you can freeze unbaked butter rolls. Just assemble them in the pan and cover tightly. When you're ready to bake, you can bake them straight from the freezer, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time. This makes for a quick and easy treat anytime!
