Yeast Rolls

Step 1: Dissolve yeast and 2 t. sugar in warm water and let rise - be sure to use a large enough container.

Step 2: Add remaining sugar, shortening and salt to scalded milk and stir to dissolve.*

Step 3: Add flour to milk mixture until it starts to fall off in sheets (usually after about 1 cup of flour). At this point, add the eggs and yeast. Mix well and begin adding the additional flour until dough reaches the desired consistency. Knead

Step 4: Lightly spray a bowl with cooking spray. Place dough in bowl, turn so the top has some of the spray on it, and let rise until doubled.

Step 5: Shape into rolls of your choice, and place on a lightly sprayed cookie sheet (I use parchment paper) and let rise again.

Step 6: Bake in a preheated 400 oven (not lower than the middle rack) for approximately 10 minutes.

Step 7: * At this point I place the milk mixture into my KitchenAid and finish it off in there.
