Roll up the dough from the short end and slice into about 15-18 pieces using dental floss for clean cuts.

Place the sliced rolls into a greased glass casserole dish, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise for another 30-60 minutes until almost doubled.

Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
