Dinner Rolls

from Laura Farish

Heat 3 cups milk in microwave for 6 minutes.  When done in microwave add 1 stick of butter and 1 cup of instant potato flakes.  Set aside and let butter melt and potato's absorb.
 
Take 1 1/2 TBSP Yeast (about 2 pkg's) and 1/4 cup warm water.  Set aside (Seems to work better if you put the yeast in a cup and then pour warm water in)  Don't stir!

In large bowl (I use my mixer) mix together 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup shortening (I use butter) 1 TBSP Salt and 3+ TBSP powdered sugar (I use a little more than that as I like it sweet) and then add 4 eggs.  Mix in mixer or by hand.

Add milk/butter/potato mixture.  Then add 4 cups flour.  Then add yeast/water mixture.  Add 4+ more cups of flour.  Knead of 5 minutes.

Put in large buttered bowl and let rise for 1 hour in a warm place with a wet towel over the top.

Divide into 1/2 or 1/3rd's and roll out.  My friend who gave me the recipe for these makes knots out of hers but I could never perfect it so I roll it into a circle and cut it up like a pizza and roll up croissants.  You can do it however you want though.  Let rise another 1/2 to 1 hour and bake the for 15 minutes or so on 350

Don't over cook them!
