    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: Swtcakes

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup milk
    2/3 cup shortening or butter(I use butter)
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 1/2 tsp. salt
    2 pkg. yeast
    1/2 cup warm water
    2 eggs, beaten
    1 cup mashed potatoes
    Enough flour to make dough

    Recipe



    Add yeast to warm water. Scald milk: add shortening OR butter, sugar, and salt to milk. When cool, add yeast. Add beaten eggs. Mix in flour and knead well. Add enough flour to work with and then knead it on a floured surface until no longer sticky. (about 5-10 minutes) Put in a greased bowl. (I have a large yellow tupperware bowl that I use.) I oil the bowl and put some oil on top of the dough. Cover and refrigerate. I always make them a day or two before Thanksgiving. Two hours before baking, roll out and make rolls. Cover with buttered wax paper and a towel. Let rise. Bake at 350 to 375 until golden. This recipe makes several pans. Enough for a large family gathering.:) When I shape them, I squeeze a small ball and flatten into a circle and then fold it over.

    I got this recipe from a dear friend who used to go to my church years ago. She called them Tea Rolls. They are so good. My family pouts when I don't make them. LOL There has been a few times when I take some from the store and....They look at me and say, "You didn't make the potato rolls." Looking really pitiful.:)

    If this wasn't such a large recipe, I would like to do the mixing and kneading in the bread machine and then transfer to the bowl and to the refrigerator but it has too much flour. I think it has at least about 5 cups, if I remember correctly. I don't measure it so I am not sure.:)
