5-1/2 cups flour 2 cups warm milk (or water or combination)
2 pkgs yeast
1/3 cup sugar
3 tsps salt
1/3 cup shortening
Dissolve yeast in warm milk. Add sugar, salt, and 2 cups of the flour. Beat with electric mixer for 2 minutes. Add shortening and beat 1 minute. Work in remaining flour and knead well.
Set in greased bowl and turn dough to grease the top. Cover and let rise 20 minutes, or until doubled.
Punch down. Shape into rolls by pinching pieces of dough to form approximate 2" balls; place on greased baking sheet. Cover with lightweight towel. Let rise again, then bake at 375ยบ approximately 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Brush tops with butter.
*Original recipe calls for water rather than milk. Most of the time, I use half water (1 cup), half milk (1 cup).
