Punch the dough down, place again on bread board and divide in half. Roll each piece into a thick rope and cut each rope into 12 pieces. Gently stretch each piece into a flat strip about 4 to 5 inches long. Tie the dough into a knot, pushing one end up through the middle to make the rose shape and tucking the other end under. Repeat with other strips.
Place rolls on a buttered baking sheet or in muffin cups.
Cover loosely with damp towels and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake rolls for 10 to 12 minutes, until tops are golden. Watch carefully, since these burn easily. The rolls can be brushed with melted butter while still hot, if desired.
