Beyond Easy Rolls (Natalie Montague)

If Nat can do them, you can too!!!


1 pkg (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast at room temperature

1 1/2 c lukewarm tap water

1/2 c sugar

1/2 c shortening

3 eggs, well beaten

1 tsp salt

4 1/2 c flour


Mix together ingredients, water and yeast first. There's no need to activate yeast alone for a certain amount of time. Cover and let rise about 1 hour. Punch down and refrigerate overnight or at least 3 hours. Roll out on a floured surface into a circle, then cut into 16 pie shaped pieces. Roll up (they'll look like crescent rolls). Cover them and let rise about 40 minutes in a warm place. Brush with butter and bake at 400 for 15 minutes. Makes 16 rolls.
