School Rolls?

You could make some excellent rolls like that out of sourdough. Same as a loaf of bread. All white, all purpose flour. Use milk instead of water. These tend to be a bit sweet, so a little sugar might not hurt if you don't mind the carbs. Mix it up, let it proof and instead of shaping into a loaf, roll into balls, dunk them in butter and pack em in a baking dish. Let them rise 2 hours and bake.

Look around down below and you will probably find some pics where guys have done just that.
