Naomi’s Roll Recipe

2 Cups Scalded Milk (I put milk in microwave until hot.  Cool to luke warm)

1/2 Cup Shortening (butter flavor)

2 pkgs. yeast

1/2 Cup warm water

2 eggs, slightly beaten

1 Cup sugar

2 tsp. salt

1 Cup Mashed Potatoes

7 Cups Flour

Soften yeast in 1/2 cup warm water.  Pour milk over shortening.  Allow to cool to lukewarm.  Add milk mixture with eggs, sugar, salt, mashed potatoes, and 4 cups flour.  Beat with mixer until smooth and well blended (this is a soft, sticky dough).  Add remaining 3 cups of flour after everything is blended smoothly. Let rise until double.  Roll out and cut into circles (you can use the top of a glass, or biscuit cutter).  Dip end in butter and fold in half.  Place on cookie sheet and let rise until double.  Bake in oven for 20 minutes at 350 degrees.
