Buttered Rosemary Rolls

Oh. My. WORD!  These are *the best* rolls ever!  One of my favorite ladies in the world, Pioneer Woman, posted these in one of her cookbooks and they're pretty much the only roll we use anymore.  Yeah...they're a-mazing!

1 package Rhode's White Dinner Rolls, they come frozen
1/2 stick melted butter
kosher or sea salt
fresh or dried rosemary, slightly chopped

Now, if you're making the whole package of rolls, you'll need more melted butter, but just melt more as you need it.
Generously spray a baking dish with Pam.
Depending on the size of the baking dish you're using, place enough dough to fill the dish; making sure you leave plenty of room for rising in between each frozen dough ball, I'd say 2 inches or so between each ball.  They will double in size.
Cover the rolls with a clean dish towel and leave them sitting in a warm place for 3-6 hours or until doubled.
Then, grab a pastry brush and generously and *gently* brush each roll with melted butter.  Lightly sprinkle each roll with rosemary.  Rosemary is very powerful, so a little bit will do.  Then gently brush a little more butter over top of the rosemary.  Then sprinkle each roll with a little kosher or sea salt.  Don't question it...just do it.
Bake in a preheated oven according to package directions.
Eat. Swoon.  Eat another one.
