I guarantee you won't be disappointed! | Tried and TastyHey there! It’s my turn to guest blog over at the Rhodes Blog again today. I’m doing things a little different than normal, and that’s because I’m so excited about this recipe I couldn’t help but share it with you here on TriedandTasty as well! Don’t forget to still check out the blog (I’ve got a funny joke for you over there), like Rhodes on Facebook and follow them on Twitter – all links are below!

Have you ever tried something once, loved it, and then didn’t have it again for years? Yet you still remember the taste? As if it were yesterday? It left such an impact that you’ve wanted it again – but for whatever reason haven’t made your way back to that bakery, the friend’s house, the long lost cookbook? That my friends is this recipe. A TriedandTasty original. I’m a sucker for bread. Almost any kind of bread. In a meeting a few years ago, I tasted the most soft and delicious cheese bread with just a hint of spice. I’m not a spicy food lover, so the fact that I enjoyed it surprised me. That was the first and last time I had anything like that.

Until now. I scoured the internet searching high and low for something to jump out at me that was either the recipe or a similar recipe. The only problem was my memory of the encounter has grown faint. I just knew all I needed was to see it again and then I would know. Only problem was I didn’t have time to head over to the bakery where the bread was bought by the time I decided that’s what I wanted to make. So I created it. I’m not much of a “wing it” kind of girl in the kitchen, so the entire time I was conjuring up the perfect recipe I was a stressed out mess :/. As it came together step by step my confidence began to grow. Once they were in the oven and I began to smell the wonderful rolls baking I knew that I was on to something. It was hard to resist taking a bite out of the piping hot roll until they had cooled for a couple of minutes but I withstood. But only for a few minutes. One bite was all it took. Then I knew.. that was the same taste from years ago!
