I only make these around the holidays, but it is the best recipe for them I have found. It is also a very old recipe.
Yeast Rolls
1 1/3 cups milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup warm water
2 packages active dry yeast
2 eggs
7 cups sifted all-purpose flour
Combine milk, sugar, salt and shortening in saucepan. Heat until bubbles appear around the edge and remove from heat. Cool to lukewarm. Measure water into large mixing bowl, sprinkle in yeast and stir to dissolve. Add lukewarm milk mixture, eggs and 4 cups flour, beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to make a stiff dough. Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured cutting board or clean countertop. Knead the dough about 5 minutes or until smooth. Put in lightly greased large bowl and cover with a damp towel. Let it rise in a warm place (85 degrees) free from draft for about 1.5 hours or until doubled is size. Punch down dough and let it rise again about 30 minutes or until almost double in size. Punch down dough again, turn out onto cutting board or countertop and knead to distribute air bubbles. Divide into 1 1/2-2 1/2 inch balls and place them in a lightly greased muffin pan, cover and let rise about 20 minutes or until double. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes.
Hope everyone enjoys this and is having a great Sunday!!
