    I read this recipe as yielding six servings at 567 cal/serving. Thus, the whole recipe is 3402 calories total and 340 calories per roll (for 10 rolls). If you had four, I'd say 340 x 4.

    Assuming you follow the directions and ingredients exactly - how many rolls total did it make? I don't know if there are any missing from the image. :)

    From the image shown the entire recipe makes 6 servings of 567 calories total. Take the total rolls and divide by 6. That is how many are in a serving for 567 calories.

    If the image is everything, and it made 10 rolls, then 567 calories = 10/6 = 1.67 rolls. If you ate 4, then you had 4 / 1.67 = 2.4 servings = 2.4 * 567 = 1360 calories.

    If there were 12 total, then the recipe makes 6 servings of 2 rolls, and 2 rolls = 567 calories. So 4 rolls would be 567 x 2 = 1134 calories.
