- In a large bowl, combine the hot roll mix, wheat germ, sugar, and the yeast from the foil packet; mix well.
- Stir in heated water (120-130°F), mashed cooked sweet potatoes, margarine, and 1 egg until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.

- Cover the dough with a large bowl and let rest for 5 minutes.

- Uncover the dough.
