Texas Roadhouse Rolls with Cinnamon Honey Butter

I love bread so I tend to gravitate toward restaurants that have yummy bread. Now, Texas Roadhouse happens to be one of those places. They have these beautiful rectangular shaped rolls. These rolls are also served with a delicious cinnamon honey butter. The Texas Roadhouse rolls are absolutely divinely soft and fluffy.
I have found several recipes that are a copy cat version of their rolls and finally decided to give them a shot. The Texas Roadhouse rolls didn’t turn out quite as soft and fluffy as the original but were still delicious. I think there must be something else that their rolls have that make them so fluffy and soft. I am wondering if it uses something that is only available for commercial kitchen. I may need to try some other recipes until I can find exactly what I want.
Now my family loved the honey butter, but I found it a little too sweet and the powdered sugar changed the texture of the butter. Next time, I am going to try to make it with half the powdered sugar or stick with my go to cinnamon honey butter recipe.
