Today’s recipe is a repeat here on the blog. But I promise you will thank me for it.
This recipe was one of the very first recipes I posted here on the blog – back in October of 2007, one month after I started my blog. The recipe is somewhat lost at the end of a soup recipe (a yummy one) and the photos aren’t very good so if you never saw it I’m not surprised.
This recipe is a copycat recipe for Magleby’s Rolls that they make at a restaurant called Magleby’s Fresh in Provo, Utah. One of my favorite stops each time I am in Utah. They make an amazing breakfast too.
These rolls are to die for – really! I promise you, when you make them, because you really must make them, everyone will love you!
They are melt in your mouth good and are the first thing to disappear every time I make them. The best part? They are so easy to make. If you are scared of yeast rolls, please don’t stop reading because here’s the secret – you make them with Rhodes frozen dinner rolls (or whatever brand of frozen dinner rolls you might have in your freezer section.)
So a few of the ingredients are a little funky (mayo) and the process for making them a little strange but the end result is amazing!!
The first thing you will need is a little bowl of mayonnaise, melted butter, and fresh grated Parmesan cheese. And some frozen roll dough.
So here is how you do it. Take your little ball of frozen bread dough and dip it in mayonnaise, yes mayonnaise. Just the top half.
So this part is a little messy but like I said – so worth it!
Next, you dip the same little ball of frozen dinner roll into the melted butter – just the top half.
And next is the cheese.
The messy fingers are worth it, I promise.
Place each little ball of frozen deliciousness into a greased muffin tin.
Sprinkle each ball with some garlic powder and dried parsley. One of the great things about this recipe is you can make however many rolls you need or want!
Next, follow the directions on the bag of frozen dinner rolls and allow to raise for time specified – I let mine raise for about 5 hours. So plan ahead – it’s worth it!
Bake according to the directions and enjoy a little piece of heaven!!
You are going to thank me for this one!
Ingredients
- 1 bag of frozen dinner rolls
- Mayonnaise (amount depends on number of rolls you are making)
- Melted Butter
- Freshly shredded Parmesan Cheese
- Garlic Powder
- Dried Parsley
Instructions
- Place mayo, cheese and butter in separate bowls,
- I buy the grated Parmesan from Costco and just keep a container of it in the freezer and pull it out as needed.
- Take the frozen ball of dough, dip the top half into each bowl starting with the mayo, then the butter and finally the cheese.
- Place roll into a well greased muffin tin (cheese side up).
- Sprinkle with garlic powder and dried parsley and let rise according to the directions (usually 5-6 hours so you need to do this early on in the day)
- Bake according to directions on the package.

Can’t wait to try this recipe, looks delicious! Love your blog! =]
My Easter was fabulous because of you! My guesta now know all about you and your wonderful blog/website and excellent classes. I incorporated the wrapping techniques I learned from your class for my Easter gifts this year. Then I made your fabulous strawberry and spinach salad with poppyseed dressing as well as your lemon cupcakes and oreo cupcakes to go with the rest of the meal. They all were a huge hit! Thank you for sharing these awesome recipes. Next on my list – these Magleby’s Rolls!
Cathy,
I am so glad!! You made my day girl! Sounds like you had an awesome Easter!!
I love the rolls at Magelby’s! I have made these several times since you first posted the recipe and my family loves them. Thank you!!
I have made these so many times! I brought them to a church potluck and they kind of went viral….everyone is making them at home!! My sister begs me to bring them to family dinners and always takes a couple for later.
Hi Leigh Anne! I made these a few weeks ago using your original blog recipe. They turned out yummy. But I was sad there were no leftovers the next day. They were taken in someone’s school lunch
I love frozen bread dough – can count on it to work everytime.
We went there just last week, and yes, the rolls are always the first thing gone, however, the french fries there are also entirely too yummy!

Love their syrup too Patti!!
I am going to thank you indeed. Those rolls look amazing! I’ve just happened upon your site for the first time. I have some catching up to do.
Those look SO good!
Have you ever made your own frozen roll dough, instead of buying it? Would you just freeze it in balls right after kneading? I am looking forward to making these. I might have to experiment a little and make some frozen dough.
I haven’t but I actually thought about it while making them this last time. I think I would let the dough go through one rise, then make the balls and freeze them if I were going to try it – let me know if you do!
I keep wondering how you stay so thin? I mean seriously, I have tried many of your recipes but I really have to hold back. They are all great but all heavy on calories.
I’m a firm believer in portion control and I was blessed with a fast metabolism!!
I am terrible! I had this bookmarked from another time you posted it and STILL have not made it! I need to change that asap! Gotta find those rolls so I can make this! I am sure my Wal-mart carries them!

Try them – now!!
I made them! Super yummy! I went to the store to by the frozen rolls but by the time I got home didn’t have 5-6 hours to let the frozen dough rise, so I used homemade dough (crazy that that was faster for me!) We loved these! I will link back when I post these on my blog! Thanks!

Glad to know it works great with homemade dough too – can’t wait to see your recipe!
I haven’t thought about Magelby’s rolls in YEARS! But I loved them back in the day and I’m ready to make your recipe this weekend. We are having guests but with your recipes I know that I can trust them to make for guests because they are always great!
Good luck at Women’s Conference BTW – I told my mom she better go to your class and report back to me.
Wow I can’t believe it was 2007 when you first posted this! I loved it then and I still love it now. Thanks for the reminder!
Oh my gosh! These look wonderful! And so easy! I can’t wait to make these (and eat all of them!)

These look very good but just wondering about the mayo being out for 5 hours or so while dough rising. Obviously you’ve made them many times but why wouldn’t the mayo spoil? Just curious!
Made them dozens of times and it has never been a problem. You do bake them.
Easy and very delicious! Thanks again for another great recipe!
I am making these tomorrow for Mother’s Day and I can’t wait. I adore Magleby’s!
Thanks again for another awesome recipe.
I made these rolls this past weekend and they were a HIT!
The rolls are so soft and the topping is so delicious!
Definitely a keeper. So easy and very yummy!
Thanks again for sharing your wonderful recipes
Mm I google searched for maglebys rolls because I ate there the other day (I am from Utah) and figured someone online has to have figured these out and that’s how I stumbled on this website. I am loving it! Me and my husband LOVE this roll reciepe and I’m currently trying out your cinnamon roll recipe. I love your idea to have cinnamon rolls and hot chocolate during conference! Its fun to come across a website made by a fellow mormon
thanks for taking the time to share your talents with those of us who don’t have a talnt for cooking! 
So glad you found me. Maglebys rolls are the best!
Made this on Sunday, and loved them so much, we had to make another batch yesterday!!! We’ve always loved Magleby’s rolls, thanks so much for the amazing recipe!
A trip to Magleby’s is a must each time we come to Utah. Glad you liked the rolls! A family favorite at our house.
Can this recipe be made a day in advance?
It can be – Not quite as delicious as fresh but still good
