Thankful Rolls and Honey Butter

I know it's kinda late to be posting Thanksgiving recipes, but I wanted to remember this fun idea for next year.  It's from The Idea Room.

Things Needed
slips of paper and pen
foil
favorite dinner roll recipe
muffin pan
Directions
Write down different notes on the slips of paper.  
Examples are:  I am thankful for (blank) because...
I am thankful for (dad, mom, brother, sister, etc...) because.... 
Tell your top ten thankful list.  

Fold the notes and wrap them in foil.  Take your favorite roll dough and make small dough balls.  Take two small dough balls and put a note in between and place them together in a greased muffin tin.  Let them rise the recommended time and bake as you normally would according to your recipe.

Then, serve them.  Your guests will be surprised that there's a little note waiting for them.  Just be sure no one eats a note on accident!  It's like a fortune cookie, but for rolls.  They help spark a fun dinner conversation.

The Results...
We had Thankful Rolls for our Thanksgiving dinner this year and everyone thought it was a fun idea.  My 7 yr. old especially liked this idea and asked if we could do it again next year.  My husband tried to sneak a roll before dinner and bit into some foil.  HA!  But, he was taste testing the Honey Butter he made to go with these rolls.

Honey Butter
Ingredients
1/2 pound (2 sticks) butter, softened
1/8 cup honey
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. vanilla 
Directions
Combine everything together in a mixer or with a handmixer.  Chill.

The Results...
Delicious!  Serve it chilled or room temp, whichever you prefer.  This is great on rolls, muffins, waffles, popcorn, all kinds of things.
