  • 2 cups bisquick
  • 1 stick butter or margarine
  • 8 oz sour cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Melt the butter and add sour cream, mixing well.
  3. Add bisquick to the mixture and stir until combined.
  4. Spray a muffin pan with non-stick spray.
  5. Evenly distribute the batter into 12 muffin cups.

Tips & Substitutions

For a richer flavor, consider using a blend of half butter and half olive oil. If you don't have sour cream, Greek yogurt can be a great substitute. To enhance texture, add shredded cheese or herbs to the batter. Make sure to mix just until combined to avoid tough rolls. These Ugly Rolls are a fantastic side for dishes like Camp Cobbler.

Serving Suggestions

Serve Ugly Rolls warm, ideally right out of the oven, alongside soups or stews for a comforting meal. They pair beautifully with a fresh salad or can be enjoyed as a snack with butter or jam. For a fun twist, try them with a side of Jello -O- Salad for a delightful contrast.

Storage & Reheating

Store leftover Ugly Rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes to restore their original texture. You can also microwave them for about 20-30 seconds, but they may become slightly soggy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use whole wheat bisquick instead of regular?

Yes, you can substitute whole wheat bisquick for regular bisquick. The rolls will have a heartier texture and a nuttier flavor. Just be aware that they may not rise as much, so consider adding a teaspoon of baking powder to help with leavening.

What can I add to the batter for extra flavor?

You can enhance the flavor of the batter by incorporating ingredients such as shredded cheese, chopped chives, or even spices like garlic powder or paprika. These additions will give your Ugly Rolls a unique twist and make them even more delicious.

Can I freeze these rolls?

Absolutely! To freeze, let the rolls cool completely, then place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. They can be frozen for up to three months. To reheat, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and warm them in the oven to restore their texture.
