Cheddar and Marmite Butter Rolls
Originally these were meant to be Cheddar and Marmite scones, but because i wasn't using a recipe and i was instead making it up as i went along they turned out far more like croissant in texture and flavour, personally i thought this meant they turned out far better then they would of done if they had been regular scones.
if you are american and don't know what Marmite is, then well i'm not sure that you will
1. like it or
2. be able to find it,
if you like baking and you want something buttery, cheesy and savory then this dish is most definitely for you.
