White Dinner Rolls

By SAEB

Ingredients

• • 1 package (1/4 oz.) active dry yeast
• • 1/4 cup warm water
• • 3/4 cup milk
• • 1/4 cup shortening
• • 1/4 cup sugar
• • 1 teaspoon salt
• • 3 cups all-purpose flour
• • 1 egg (or egg substitute)

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, soften the yeast in the warm water.

Scald the milk.

In a mixing bowl add the shortening, sugar, salt and scalded milk. Cool to lukewarm.

Add 1 cup of the flour; beat well.

Beat in yeast mixture and the egg. Add remaining flour; mix well.

Place in a greased bowl, turning dough once.
Cover; store in refrigerator at least 2 hours or till needed (For best results, store it overnight).

About 3 hours before serving time, shape dough on well-floured surface. (I rolled 3 balls and put in a muffin pan.) Let rise in warm place till double (about 1 1/4 hours). Bake in 400°F oven for 12 to 15 minutes.
