List of Ingredients




1 Cup boiling water
3/4 cup shortening
1 1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup sugar
2 Eggs, beaten
2 packages active dry yeast
1 cup warm water
6 cups Flour


Recipe



Pour the boiling water over the shortening. Add the salt and sugar. Let the mixture cool, then add the eggs. Let the yeast stand in the warm water for 5 minutes. Then stir into the shortening/egg mixture.

Mix in the flour, a cup at a time. Transfer to a greased bowl in the refrigerator and let sit for at least two hours. (the dough will keep in the icebox several days) For the short term, a damp cloth cover will do, but longer term requires plastic wrap.

Roll the dough on a floured board. Cut the rolls out with a donut cutter, brush with melted butter, and then fold them over. Place in a buttered pan and brush with more butter. About 15-18 rolls will fit in an 8-inch square pan.

Let rise 1 1/2 hours in a warm place.

Bake at 375F or until brown on top, about 10-12 minutes.

These rolls freese beautifully. To do that, bake them until almost done, then freeze. Thaw and take to house of breaved. Reheat before serving.

Makes about five dozen rolls.
