It happened a year ago when I bought my stand mixer that I fell in love with dinner rolls. I made crescent rolls, bread sticks and these rolls during that time. The dough is essentially the same for all, but different ways to shape it of course.
These rolls were a joy to make and the kids loved it. You can also just use 3 cups of bread flour alone instead of a mix of whole wheat and bread flour. The rolls were soft, pillowy and were the perfect bite-size for little hands.

Whole Wheat Parker House Rolls.
Ingredients:
- water - 3/4 cup
- milk - 1/2 cup (lukewarm - I used fat free)
- butter - 21/2 tbsp
- brown sugar - 2 tbsp - packed
- salt - 3/4 - 1 tsp
- yeast - 2 tsp (instant yeast)
- whole wheat flour - 11/2 cups
- bread flour - 1 - 11/2 cups
Instructions:
Make a dough with the ingredients. Place in an oiled bowl and allow to double.
Roll dough into a circle about 1/4 inch thick. Cut into 3 inch circles using a biscuit cutter. Press each biscuit with the handle of a wooden spoon. Press a bit off center as shown in picture.
Fold the biscuit so the top half overlaps the bottom. Place close together on a greased baking sheet and allow to rise again.
Brush with butter. Bake in a preheated 350F oven for about 15 - 20 minutes until the top is golden brown.
I broiled finally on LOW to get the bread to brown a bit on top.
