  4. Roll dough into a rectangle and spread cherry pie filling on top, leaving a small border.
  5. Roll the dough tightly from one edge to form a log and slice into 1¾-inch pieces.
  6. Place rolls in a greased pan, cover with a towel, and let them rise for 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and bake rolls for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.
