AE, here is a recipe that you might want to try. It's my recipe for rolls and the best thing
about it is the dough rises in the fridge! You use as much of it as you want and it keeps
for about one week in the fridge.
Refrigerator Rolls
2 packages active dry yeast
1 cup water (warm 110 degrees)
1 teaspoon sugar
2 cups milk, scalded
2/3 cup melted shortening
3/4 cup sugar
4 teaspoons salt
2 beaten eggs
10 -11 cups flour
Soften dry yeast in warn water (110 degrees).
Add the 1 teaspoon sugar to yeast mixture.
Add milk, cooled to lukewarm, shortening, 3/4 cup sugar, and salt.
Add eggs and beat well.
Add flour to make a soft dough.
(I use my mixer with Dough Hook).
Let stand 10 minutes.
Knead on lightly floured surface till smooth and elastic.
Place in greased Bowl, and cover.
Store in refrigerator and let rise overnight.
Shape rolls about 2 hours before serving.
Let rise till double in bulk.
Bake in hot oven 425 degrees 15 to 20 minutes.
Punch down unused dough and return to refrigerator. Use as needed for one week.
Makes 4 to 5 dozen medium rolls.
